Physical Change & Aging: A Guide fo the Helping Professions

A well written resource providing an in depth understanding of human physiology and the variations due to the aging process. In selecting this particular book, I evaluated numerous other publications which provided similar perspectives on the aging process but lacked the presentation of Saxon & Etten. I have found Physical Change & Aging to be easy to read, informative and a valuable resource in understanding the aging process.
