Gerontology Explained : The Complete Guide to Aging, Geriatric Care, and Gerontology Studies
Overview
Aging is the one universal experience no one fully understands until they're living it, whether as a student, a caregiver, or simply someone watching the years arrive faster than expected.
Gerontology Explained brings together the biology, psychology, and social realities of growing older into one clear, complete guide. Discover why we age at the cellular level, how memory and identity evolve across a lifetime, and what separates ordinary forgetfulness from genuine warning signs. Learn how to navigate caregiving, dementia, chronic illness, and end-of-life decisions with confidence rather than guesswork.
From dependency ratios to dignity in dying, from Erikson's life review to the economics of long-term care, this book connects theory to real life at every turn.
Whether you're studying gerontology, caring for a parent, or planning your own future, this is the single resource that finally makes sense of it all.
