Aging: Concepts and Controversies is structured to encourage a style of teaching and learning that goes beyond conveying facts and methods.
This innovative text focuses on controversies and questions rather than on assimilating facts or creating a single correct view about aging or older people.
Drawing on their extensive expertise, authors Harry R.
Moody and Jennifer R.
Sasser first provide an overview of aging in three domains: aging over the life course, health care, and socioeconomic trends.
Each section then includes data and conceptual frameworks, helping readers to make sense of the controversies and understand their origin, engage in critical thinking, and develop their own views.
The Tenth Edition of this hallmark textbook includes amplified discussions focused on differences, diversity, structural inequalities, and inclusion, as well as contemporary issues, including climate change and immigration.
