"African American elders."

Chapter In: Social Work Practice with Ethnically and Racially Diverse Nursing Home Residents and their Families.
Edited by Patricia J. Kolb.
New York, NY: Columbia University Press, ©2007.
"The first of its kind, this volume is a critical companion for service providers who work with African American, American Indian, Chinese, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Mexican American, and Puerto Rican elders and their families in nursing homes and other settings addressing placement issues. These groups are likely to use nursing homes in larger numbers as cultural shifts, such as higher divorce rates and increased outside-of-home employment for females, transform traditional family dynamics."

Ageism: Stereotyping and Prejudice Against Older Persons.

Edited by Todd D. Nelson.
Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, ©2002.
"Along with race and gender, people commonly use age to categorize -- and form stereotypes about -- others. Of the three categories, age is the only one in which the members of the in-group (the young) will eventually join the out-group (the old). Although ageism is found cross-culturally, it is especially prevalent in the United States, where most people regard growing older with depression, fear, and anxiety. Older people in the United States are stigmatized and marginalized, with often devastating consequences. Although researchers have paid a great deal of attention to racism and sexism, there has been a dearth of research on ageism. A major reason for this neglect is that age prejudice is still considered socially acceptable." (quote from publisher's webpage).

Challenges of an Aging Society: Ethical Dilemmas, Political Issues.

Edited by Rachel A. Pruchno and Michael A. Smyer.
Baltimore, MD: Johns Hopkins University Press, 2007.
"In this important and timely collection, some of the best minds in gerontology and bioethics--including Nancy Dubler, Rick Moody, Andrew Achenbaum, Robert Hudson, and Robert Binstock--explore the ethical, social, and political challenges of an aging society. A unique combination of disciplines and perspectives--from economics to nursing, psychology to theology--this valuable synthesis of theory and practice provides frameworks and analyses for considering the ethical issues of both individual and societal aging. The contributors address the major policy challenges of Social Security, Medicare, and prescription drugs as well as ethical issues ranging from individual autonomy to family responsibility to distributive justice. Specific topics covered include end-of-life decision making, family relations across generations, age-based intergenerational policies, and the reform of Social Security."

Geronticide: Killing the Elderly.

By Mike Brogden.
London, England; Philadelphia, PA: Jessica Kingsley Publishers, 2001.
"The increasing elderly population poses many economic and ethical questions for modern society. One of the most topical and controversial of these is the debate about euthanasia. Drawing on a variety of historical, contemporary, anthropological and literary sources, this book considers the present day debates about the sanctity of elderly lives and the question of euthanasia. The book shows that killing the elderly, voluntarily or involuntarily, has been a feature of many societies, from the primitive to the present day." (quote from publisher's webpage).

Living through Loss: Interventions Across the Life Span.

By Nancy R. Hooyman and Betty J. Kramer.
New York, NY: Columbia University Press, ©2006.
Series: Foundations of social work knowledge.
"Nancy R. Hooyman and Betty J. Kramer's Living Through Loss is the first book to identify the many ways in which people experience loss over the course of life and to discuss the interventions most effective at each stage of life. It is intended for students, social workers, and other health and human service professionals who seek a definitive, single-source reference. The authors' starting point is that loss comes in many forms and can include not only suffering the death of a person one loves but also giving birth to a child with disabilities, living with chronic illness, or being abused, assaulted, or otherwise traumatized. They approach loss from the perspective of the resilience model, which acknowledges the capacity of people to integrate loss into their lives, and write sensitively about the role of age, race, culture, sexual orientation, gender, and spirituality in a person's response to loss."

The Older Worker Advantage: Making the Most of Our Aging Workforce.

By Gordon F. Shea and Adolf Haasen.
Westport, CN: Praeger, ©2006.
"Recently published figures predict that the number of employed individuals between the ages of 55 and 64 will increase by 11 million by 2002; on average, today's 65-year-old can expect to live to 83, reflecting general trends in increased health and longevity. As the huge cadre of baby boomers approaches traditional retirement age, such factors as financial security, health benefits, and the attractiveness of staying active in later years are encouraging more older people to work well into their 60s, 70s, and even 80s, while businesses are learning to anticipate their long-term employment needs, and facing potential labor shortages unless they hold onto and develop more older workers. The economic, political, and cultural implications of these trends will reach staggering proportions, changing the make-up of organizations large and small and the very nature of work and our attitudes toward it."

By Elaine Theresa Jurkowski.

Jurkowski also adumbrates major service areas for older adults, and examines how each major mandated program addresses these programs and services--a must for the program planner or a service delivery setting."

Social Structures, Aging, and Self-Regulation in the Elderly.

Edited by K. Warner Schaie and Laura L. Carstensen.
New York, NY: Springer Pub., ©2006.
Series: Societal impact on aging.
"This collection considers ways in which societal contexts influence aging by influencing self-regulatory processes. No one doubts that the social contexts in which individuals develop exert strong influence on life trajectories. Those born into environments that provide high quality education, supportive social relations, and economic assets do better in old age than those born into environments bereft of such resources. The extent of this influence, however, is only beginning to be revealed. Recent research shows that life experiences influence basic brain structures (e.g. the effect of musical training on neural organization) and functions (e.g. inflammatory processes), and that social embeddedness may even protect against Alzheimer's disease. Similarly, education increasingly appears to have a "real" effect on neural integrity. Thus, societal contexts may not simply open or close doors for individuals, but may influence self-regulatory processes at the most basic levels of functioning." (quote from publisher's webpage).

"The first of its kind, this volume is a critical companion for service providers who work with African American, American Indian, Chinese, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Mexican American, and Puerto Rican elders and their families in nursing homes and other settings addressing placement issues.

Tuesdays with Morrie: An Old Man, A Young Man, and Life's Greatest Lesson.

By Mitch Albom.
New York, NY: Doubleday, ©1997.
"Maybe it was a grandparent, or a teacher, or a colleague. Someone older, patient and wise, who understood you when you were young and searching, helped you see the world as a more profound place, gave you sound advice to help you make your way through it. For Mitch Albom, that person was Morrie Schwartz, his college professor from nearly twenty years ago. Maybe, like Mitch, you lost track of this mentor as you made your way, and the insights faded, and the world seemed colder. Wouldn't you like to see that person again, ask the bigger questions that still haunt you, receive wisdom for your busy life today the way you once did when you were younger? Mitch Albom had that second chance. He rediscovered Morrie in the last months of the older man's life. Knowing he was dying, Morrie visited with Mitch in his study every Tuesday, just as they used to back in college. Their rekindled relationship turned into one final "class": lessons in how to live."

Buffeted by pension cuts, corporate bankruptcies, and the 2001-2002 stock market crash, most boomers now expect to be working into their retirement years."--Container.

"For the first time in American history, "the old old"--Those over 85 -- are now the fastest growing segment of the U.S. population. Medical advances have enabled an unprecedented number of Americans to live longer, healthier lives. But for millions of elderly, living longer can also mean a debilitating physical decline that often requires an immense amount of care. And just as more care is needed, fewer caregivers are available to provide it. In "Living Old," FRONTLINE investigates this national crisis and explores the new realities of aging in America."--Publisher's information.

Boomers Approaching Midlife: How Secure a Future? Research Report.

"Baby boomers now constitute the core of the prime working age population, helping to fuel the longest peacetime economic expansion in our history. When they begin to retire in large numbers in 2008 (when the oldest boomers turn 62), they will create pressures on private and public retirement systems as they begin to withdraw from the labor force, and they may in the process redefine retirement. This 62 page chartbook represents an assessment of the future economic prospects of boomers. The book's conclusions are that most boomers will generally be better off in retirement than most people think, but there will still be a substantial vulnerable segment of the boomer population that will retire with no private pension, little or no retirement savings, and with the prospect of increased longevity with meager resources." PDF file; AARP Public Policy Institute, Issued: May 1998.
