As debates on policy concerning medical care and social welfare of the elderly become ever more pressing, many of the assumptions on which they are based are now open to question.
Life, Death and the Elderly provides a valuable historical perspective on the economic, medical, class and gender relations of the elderly, which until now have received relatively little attention. In particular, the position of the elderly is linked to the fundamentally important issues of health, disability and medicalisation.
With attention currently focused on the setting of the retirement age, community and family care and pensions, as well as wider debates on the rights of old age, this volume will help provide an historical context for these contemporary issues.
