Disability and Aging : Learning from Both to Empower the Lives of Older Adults, Hardback Book

Disability and Aging : Learning from Both to Empower the Lives of Older Adults Hardback

Part of the Disability in Society series

Hardback

Description

What is the lived experience of previously healthy older adults as they face disability in late life, and how is disability assimilated in their identity?

How do prevailing practices facilitate—or limit—options for elders living with new disabilities?To address these questions, Jeffrey Kahana and Eva Kahana uniquely synthesize disability and gerontological perspectives to explore both the unfolding challenges of aging and the practices and policies that can enhance the lives of older adults.
