Offering an important, international perspective on aging societies around the globe, this book critically analyzes the limitations of contemporary aging policies, calling for a fuller understanding of the relationship between health and care. Drawing on the feminist ethic of care, Liz Lloyd reviews a range of international evidence on health inequalities, health promotions, and health care. In doing so, she provides fresh insights for social scientists, policymakers, gerontologists, or anyone interested in the global policies that have had profound impact on how people experience aging.
