Handbook of Aging and the Social Sciences, Ninth Edition, provides a comprehensive synthesis of the latest research findings in the science of aging.

The complexities of population dynamics, cohort succession and policy changes modify the world and its inhabitants in ways that must be vigilantly monitored. Completely revised, this edition not only includes the foundational, classic themes of aging research, but also a rich array of emerging topics and perspectives that advance the field in exciting ways. New topics include families, immigration, social factors and cognition, caregiving, neighbourhoods and built environments, natural disasters, religion and health, and sexual behaviour, among others.

This book will serve as a useful resource and an inspiration to those searching for ways to contribute to the aging enterprise.

Includes aging topics at both the micro- and macro-level
Addresses the intersection of individual and aggregate factors
Covers a spectrum of disciplines, including demography, economics, epidemiology, gerontology, political science, psychology, social work, sociology and statistics
Brings together the work of almost fifty leading scholars to provide a deeper understanding of aging
