Both have been identified as dominant demographic trends of the 21st century. Cities are where the majority of people of all ages now live and where they will spend their old age. Nevertheless, cities are typically imagined and structured with a younger, working age population in mind whilst older people are rarely incorporated into the mainstream of thinking and planning around urban environments. Cities can contribute to vulnerability arising from high levels of population turnover, environmental problems, gentrification, and reduced availability of affordable housing. However, they can also provide innovative forms of support and services essential to promoting the quality of life of older people. Policies in Europe have emphasized the role of the local environment in promoting 'ageing in place', a term used to describe the goal of helping people to remain in their own homes and communities for as long as they wish. However, whilst this has been the dominant approach, the places in which older people are ageing have often proved to be challenging environments. The book explores the forces behind these developments and how older people have responded. Drawing upon approaches from social gerontology, urban studies, geography, and sociology, this book will be essential reading for researchers, policy-makers and practitioners searching for innovative ways to improve the lives of older people living in urban environments"--Provided by publisher.Aging and Society SeriesUrban older peopleUrban older peopleServices forUrbanizationSocial aspectsPopulation agingSocial aspectsUrban older people.Urban older peopleServices for.UrbanizationSocial aspects.Population agingSocial aspects.307.76084/6SOC013000SOC026000SOC026030bisacshBuffel Tine1371401Phillipson Chris912123MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910734337703321Ageing in Place in Urban Environments3601356UNINA03312nam 22005895 450 991025457750332120200703015815.03-319-55619-310.1007/978-3-319-55619-2(CKB)3850000000027379(DE-He213)978-3-319-55619-2(MiAaPQ)EBC6314996(MiAaPQ)EBC5577040(Au-PeEL)EBL5577040(OCoLC)984149902(PPN)200513311(EXLCZ)99385000000002737920170422d2017 u| 0engurnn|008mamaatxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierLectures on Classical and Quantum Theory of Fields /by Henryk Arodz, Leszek Hadasz2nd ed. 2017.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2017.1 online resource (XI, 353 p. 34 illus.)

It provides didactic introductions to the main topics in the theory of fields, while taking into account the contemporary view of the subject. The student will find concise explanations of basic notions essential for applications of the theory of fields as well as for frontier research in theoretical physics. One third of the book is devoted to classical fields. Each chapter contains exercises of varying degree of difficulty with hints or solutions, plus summaries and worked examples as useful. It aims to deliver a unique combination of classical and quantum field theory in one compact course.Graduate Texts in Physics,1868-4513Quantum field theoryString modelsParticles (Nuclear physics)Quantum Field Theories, String Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19048Elementary Particles, Quantum Field Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P23029Quantum field theory.String models.Particles (Nuclear physics)Quantum Field Theories, String Theory.Elementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory.530.14Arodz Henrykauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut823013Hadasz Leszekauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910254577503321Lectures on Classical and Quantum Theory of Fields2004346UNINA
