Aging with Dignity is the first book focused on the opportunities of an aging society, rather than the challenges presented by demographic change. It describes how healthcare systems and societies overall need to adapt to the individuals they serve and become more inclusive. Johanna Adami, MD, MPH, Ph.D., President,Sophiahemmet University The authors of Aging with Dignity have given us not only a comprehensive account of cutting edge elder care practices but also important input on how further improvements can be made.
