Valuing older people
A humanist approach to ageing
Edited by Ricca Edmondson and Hans-Joachim von Kondratowitz
How can we understand older people as real human beings, value their wisdom, and appreciate that their norms and purposes both matter in themselves and are affected by those of others? Using a life-course approach this book argues that the complexity and potential creativity of later life demand a humanistic vision of older people and ageing.
