Product Description
Populations are ageing throughout the world, but particularly in European countries and the USA, and this has far-reaching effects. The second edition of "Ageing: the facts" has been rewritten to take account of the political and demographic changes and advances in medical knowledge since the first edition was published. The bbook is a source of information for lay and professional readers on the physical, mental and sociological aspects of ageing. It is also a practical manual for coping with the problems and pleasures of growing old, and gives advice to those who care for older people.
