| Description: |
Discusses issues important to those dealing with the very old in the community. Following an examination of old-age stereotypes, the study discusses such topics as the quality of life, health and disability, support and care, and other social circumstances relating to the over-90's. |
| Synopsis: |
In Life After Ninety Micheal Bury and Anthea Holme have surveyed and interviewed 200 individuals, living at home and in institutions, to examine old age stereotypes and present a unique picture of the health, quality of life, and social circumstances of the very old. Longevity and the factors which promote it are also discussed, and throughout the book the concept of the 'life course' is employed, which brings together the biographical experiences of individuals, and the changing historical circumstances of the twentieth century, through which they have lived. |
