Aging in rural settings

This text provides the critical dimensions of growing old in rural environments. Prominent researchers explore issues related to life conditions, diversity, services, and public policies for rural elders. A comprehensive overview of the field, this volume addresses the major contemporary themes that dominate rural living today. Special attention is given to populations such as women, African Americans, the oldest old, and the poor, generally considered at greater risk of poor health, social isolation, and economic vulnerability.
