Aging

208 Seiten, Taschenbuch, ab 14 bis 17 Jahre

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

One of the sharpest criticisms within and outside of Hollywood is that it provides no strong, beautiful, inspirational parts for aging female actors. They merely disappear while aging male actors get action hero and older Lothario parts. This collection of essays leaves the controversies of Hollywood ageism and sexism behind to look at other cultures and how they treat the aging. Readers will examine the effect of aging populations within other societies. They will evaluate policy solutions and attitudes. They will also learn about health issues in relation to aging. Readers will learn from Europe, China, Japan and several other cultures about their viewpoints on aging.
