Opis

Focuses on five themes that link to an argument in the study of ageing and social policy. This book presents a policy context of neo-liberal social policy and implications for older people. It also looks at the idea that social construction of ageing focuses on 'ageing body' and its discursive construction by medical and cultural representations.
