Ageing, Healthy and in Control: An Alternative Approach to Maintaining the Health of Older People

By Steve Scrutton

Ageing, Healthy and in Control challenges conventional approaches to meeting the health needs of older people. It examines the neglect, despair and pessimism that so often surrounds the subject. Medicalization of caring for older people, which so often appears to remove them from personality responsibility for their own health is also discussed.
