Description
This annotated bibliography surveys the significant research from the last 20 years about the legal, medical, psychological, social, and economic aspects of the employment of the elderly. Rife identifies sources dealing with the demography of our aging work force, the characteristics and problems of older workers in different populations, training and placement programs, job searches, age discrimination, and future issues. Researchers, policymakers, students, teachers, and readers in public, business, and institutional libraries will find this unique and current guide to databases, periodicals, government documents, and a broad array of other source materials invaluable. This easy to use interdisciplinary guide offers an introductory overview, topically organized chapters, and full author and subject indexes.
