The elder population is not only growing in size, but also becoming more diverse—including differences in gender, race, ethnicity, class, and sexuality—and the experiences of aging people can vary dramatically. Books in this series explore this diversity, focusing on the ways that these social inequalities, along with ageism, shape experiences of growing old. The series will illustrate the challenges and opportunities that diversity and aging present for society, both now and in the future.
