Placing economic considerations into a wider social sciences context, this is ideal reading not only for advanced undergraduate and masters students in economics, health economics and the economics of ageing, but also policy makers, students, professionals and practitioners in gerontology, sociology, health-related sciences and social care. This volume introduces the different conceptualisations of age and definitions of `old age', as well as the main theories of individual ageing as developed in the disciplines of biology, psychology and sociology. It covers the economic theories of fertility, mortality and migration and describes the four main frameworks that can be used to study economics and ageing, namely the life cycle, the overlapping generations, the perpetual youth and the dynastic models. José Luis Iparraguirre is Chief Economist at Age UK and Professor of Economics at the University of Morón, Buenos Aires, Argentina. . 606 $aMedical economics 606 $aAging 606 $aEvolutionary economics 606 $aInstitutional economics 606 $aFinance, Public 606 $aPopulation$xEconomic aspects 606 $aLabor economics 606 $aHealth Economics 606 $aAgeing 606 $aInstitutional and Evolutionary Economics 606 $aPublic Economics 606 $aPopulation Economics 606 $aLabor Economics 615 0$aMedical economics. 615 0$aAging. 615 0$aEvolutionary economics. 615 0$aInstitutional economics. 615 0$aFinance, Public. 615 0$aPopulation$xEconomic aspects. 615 0$aLabor economics. 615 14$aHealth Economics. 615 24$aAgeing. 615 24$aInstitutional and Evolutionary Economics. 615 24$aPublic Economics. 615 24$aPopulation Economics. 615 24$aLabor Economics. 676 $a305.26 700 $aIparraguirre$b José Luis$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0870339 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910303454703321 996 $aEconomics and Ageing$91942961 997 $aUNINA
