Fifteen papers discuss the living arrangements of older persons in various regions of the world. The focus is on how these arrangements influence the demand for formal and informal support systems and how governments respond to these perceived needs. The papers were originally presented at a conference held at United Nations Headquarters in New York in February of 2000. The volume is not indexed. Annotation c.

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.
