Opis

This multi-method study of crime and the elderly in a small town setting approaches the related issues from varied perspectives and presents a picture of fear and crime among the elderly. The book offers a departure from the urban view with an emphasis on phenomenology and qualitative research. The study allows the elderly and other key informants to present their own portrait relative to crime - a portrait that is far more contextually varied and far less dominated by fear and vunn erability than is commonly assumed.
