Ageing and the Transition to Retirement: A Comparative Analysis of European Welfare States
ISBN: 9780754609223 / Angielski / Twarda / 310 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. There are two conflicting trends in Europe: a demographic shift towards population ageing, and a massive decrease in the labour force participation of older workers (aged 50 years and over). This captivating book offers a refined and authoritative understanding of these trends and the two socio-economic concerns of most European welfare states that have been re-enforced as a consequence. These are: the increasing costs for welfare states to finance 'pathways' from employment to official retirement, and the threat of labour market shortages in the near future as a result of both the ageing...

Key Demographics in Retirement Risk Management
ISBN: 9789400740433 / Angielski / Twarda / 146 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Key Demographics in Retirement Risk Management argues that the weakening of public and employer-sponsored social safety nets in several countries will permanently increase pre-retirees' risk-anxiety and create pressure towards readjustment of their expectations about the quality of their lives in retirement. The result will be to raise the priority of achieving effective comprehensive retirement related risk management. This achievement requires an emphasis upon the cascading of linked risks, and careful attention to the optimization of scarce resources used to manage those linked risks....

Death By Completion: A Guide to Conscious Dying
ISBN: 9781466497801 / Angielski / Miękka / 114 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. As Baby Boomers are emerging in large numbers, preparing for their own passing is as important a developmental task as planning for retirement. Many books about death and dying, either theory-based, or religious-based, suggest that death is a passive experience one must surrender to. This book is a self-help 'how to' plan to orchestrate and engage in a very lively and celebratory experience with everyone and everything important to one's life. It's a blueprint for purposefully approaching the end of life as the ultimate opportunity to bring meaningful closure for everyone involved.

There are probably other less than complimentary adjectives used to describe women at midlife and beyond. Typically, judgments like these arise from superficial evaluations of women's worth based on short-sighted values of physical beauty, youthfulness, high income, and a frantic pace of activity. For too long, women have accepted these judgments. The unspoken prejudice often leads mature women to defer to wrinkle-free, bubbly, and less qualified younger people. They not only throw in the towel, but also...
