Being Old,
By Jean R. Eckerly (Edina, MN United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Learning to Be Old: Gender, Culture, and Aging (Paperback)
If presenting unvarnished truth appears to be "sometimes overly strident", so be it. Ageism is indeed rampant unless one happens to be a white male political or corporate figure, and this book gives one the data that supports this truth.As a physician, I find the chapter "Overmedicating Old Americans" extremely important and timely, and I feel that this book can be easily read by the general public and should be taken very seriously by Health Care and Social Service professionals. |
