Overview

"English summary: We are living today in a rapidly ageing society, but many 'older' people don't really feel that they are 'old' at all. Ageing has many facets and is perhaps the most enigmatic phase of life. This introductory volume in the series 'Living a Long Life u Shaping the Ageing Process' uses current research on ageing to indicate different ways of interpreting the demands and contradictions involved in growing older. On the basis of these findings, the book offers many suggestions for ways of dealing with central questions that arise not only for older people, but also for people of all ages. German description: In diesem ersten Band der neuen Reihe ""Lange Leben leben Altern gestalten"" wird in gut verstandlicher Weise dargestellt, dass die gegenwartige Alternsforschung hilfreich ist, um den Potentialen, Anforderungen und Widerspruchlichkeiten des Alterwerdens proaktiv zu begegnen. Auf Grundlage dieser Erkenntnisse bieten die AutorInnen vielfaltige Anstoae zum Umgang mit zentralen Fragen, die sich nicht nur fur altere Menschen, sondern bereits fur Menschen mittleren Alters stellen."
