But beyond statistics and implications for the future, we do not know much about the actual aging process. Senior citizens and their varied experiences have, for the most part, been obscured by stereotypes. This fascinating new collection of research on the elderly works to put a human face on aging by considering multiple dimensions of the aging experience in Japan. Faces of Aging foregrounds a spectrum of elder-centered issues—social activity, caregiving, generational bias, suicide, sexuality, and communication with medical professionals, to name a few—from the perspective of those who are living them. The volume's diverse contributors represent the fields of sociology, anthropology, medicine, nursing, gerontology, psychology, film studies, gender studies, communication, and linguistics, offering a diverse selection of qualitative studies of aging to researchers across the social sciences.Older peopleJapanAgingSocial aspectsJapanElectronic books.Older peopleAgingSocial aspects305.260952Matsumoto Yoshiko1954-908542MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910461856703321Faces of aging2475337UNINA01066nam0 22002771i 450 UON0048909220231205105324.36720180608d1974 |0itac50 baitaIT|||| |||||Che cosa ha veramente detto PascalF.
