The Encyclopedia of Gerontology, second edition is intended for use by both students and research professionals. Articles have been chosen to reflect major disciplines in the study of gerontology and adult development and aging, common topics of research by professionals in this realm, and areas of public interest and concern. Coverage includes five major areas: the biology of aging, the psychology of aging, aging and the social sciences, health sciences, and the humanities and aging. Each article serves as a comprehensive overview of a given area, providing both breadth of coverage for students and depth of coverage for research professionals.
