Aging and Work in the 21st Century, 2nd
edition, reviews, summarizes, and integrates existing literature from
various disciplines with regard to aging and work, but with a focus on
recent advances in the field. Chapter authors, all leading experts
within their respective areas, provide recommendations for future
research, practice, and/or public policy. Fully revised and updated, the
second edition takes up many of the same critical topics addressed in
the first edition, and incorporates twelve new authors across the volume
and three brand new chapters on recruitment and retention, legal
issues, and global issues in work and aging.
The intended
audience is advanced undergraduate and graduate students, as well as
researchers in the disciplines of industrial and organizational
psychology; developmental psychology; gerontology; sociology; economics;
and social work. Older worker advocate organizations, such as AARP,
will also take interest in this edited book.
