Автор: Paul Reynolds, Paul Simpson, Trish Hafford-Letchfield Название: Sex and Diversity in Later Life: Critical Perspectives ISBN: 1447355431 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781447355434 Издательство: Marston Book Services Рейтинг: Цена: 35630.00 T Наличие на складе: Поставка под заказ. Описание: Despite increased awareness of sexual diversity, older people's accounts of sex and intimacy remain marginalised.
This edited volume addresses diversity in sexual and intimate experience later in life (50+) and captures international research and analysis relating to intersectional identities. Contributors explore how being older intersects with differences of ethnicity, gender, sexuality and class.
Offering a critical focus and original contribution to an emerging, although still relatively neglected field, this collection extends knowledge concerning intimacies, practices and pleasures for those thought to represent normative, non-normative and 'new normative' forms of sexual identification and expression.
Автор: Ann Leahy Название: Disability and Ageing: Towards a Critical Perspective ISBN: 1447357183 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781447357186 Издательство: Marston Book Services Рейтинг: Цена: 35630.00 T Наличие на складе: Поставка под заказ. Описание: Establishing a critical and interdisciplinary dialogue, this text engages with the typically disparate fields of social gerontology and disability studies. It investigates the subjective experiences of two groups rarely considered together in research – people ageing with long-standing disability and people first experiencing disability with ageing.
This book challenges assumptions about impairment in later life and the residual nature of the ‘fourth age’. It proposes that the experience of ‘disability’ in older age reaches beyond the bodily context and can involve not only a challenge to a sense of value and meaning in life, but also ongoing efforts in response.
The age-friendly community movement is a global phenomenon, currently growing with the support of the WHO and multiple international and national organizations in the field of aging. Drawing on an extensive collection of international case studies, this volume provides an introduction to the movement. The contributors – both researchers and practitioners – touch on a number of current tensions and issues in the movement and offer a wide-ranging set of recommendations for advancing age-friendly community development. The book concludes with a call for a radical transformation of a medical and lifestyle model of aging into a relational model of health and social/individual wellbeing.
