Description
Two experts on aging consider how our health needs change as we age and evaluate our current system of care provision. From definitions of health and well-being to informal caregiving, from a cost-benefit analysis of continuing care to the wide range of options available to help manage our changing needs, this fascinating and informative book provides an eye-opening look at the realities of an aging population.
