Description:

As the baby boomers move into retirement and later stages of life, gerontology and geriatrics have begun to receive much more attention. As the authors illustrate, family therapists’ expertise in family-systems theory make them uniquely qualified to take a leading role in helping families and individuals cope with the challenges and changed circumstances that aging brings. The authors address the state of some of the most important issues faced during the aging process: Coping with the illness of a parent or partner, working past retirement age, outliving one’s savings, preserving physical and mental well-being over time, and more.
