Birth to Old Age is about our changing experiences and understanding of health throughout our lifespan. The major theme of is our movement from dependence on others during childhood to a state of interdependence in adulthood, and increasing dependency in later life. This tension between autonomy and social dependency is reflected throughout our adult life in issues such as sexuality, fertility, work and stress. / Each chapter focuses on a specific period of our lives, reviewing the major health issues of that age group - providing new and challenging insights and raising important questions; Are parents responsible for accidents to children? Is risk-taking an essential step in the transition from adolescence to adulthood? What is the mid-life 'crisis'? How does society shape the ways in which we experience death and dying? / This book will be a valuable text for students of health studies, social work, social policy, medicine, nursing and the social sciences. It will be important reading for a wide range of health professionals and carers.Read More
