内容説明
In Granny @ Work , Karen Riggs - a renowned expert on aging - shows how employers, software engineers, and public policy makers are thinking about the roles older adults might play in the workplace of the future - and asks whether those on the front lines of corporate life are actually looking out for the interests of a greying workforce. She also examines dominant beliefs about aging and technology as seen in popular culture, ranging from films like Cocoon and Space Cowboys to speciality websites and magazines aimed at older workers.

内容説明
Granny @ Work is an impassioned comment on aging, work, and technology in American culture. As Riggs challenges popular assumptions with surprising research-for example, people over the age of 60 spend more time on the Internet than people of any other age group-and trenchant cultural critique, she forces us to confront the deeply entrenched ageism in today's technology-driven workplace.
