We are born, we get old and we die. Given the universiality of the ageing process, it is remarkable that there is almost a complete absence of study of culture and self-image of the middle aged and old. Images of Ageing: Cultural Representations of Later Life changes this. The contributors discuss images of ageing which have come to circulate in the advanced industrial societies today. They address themes such as: body and self image in everyday interaction; experience and identity on old age; advertising and consumer culture images of the elderly; images of ageing used by Government agencies in health education campaigns; the diversity of historical representations of the elderly; gender images of ageing; images of senility and second childhood; images of health, illness and death.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51865683001632,"sku":"NEW0415112591","price":67.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61tpxFLSyML.jpg?v=1781665591","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/images-of-aging-0415112591","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
