520 This state-of-the-art handbook will keep researchers and
practitioners in gerontology abreast of the newest
theories and models of aging. With virtually all new
contributors and content, this edition contains 35
chapters by the most highly respected luminaries in the
field. It addresses theories and concepts built on
cumulative knowledge in four disciplinary areas - biology,
psychology, social sciences, and policy and practice - as
well as landmark advances in trans-disciplinary science.
With its explicit focus on theory, the handbook is unique
in providing essential knowledge about primary
explanations for aging, spanning from cells to societies.
The chapters in the third edition place a strong emphasis
on the future of theory development, assessing the current
state of theories and providing a roadmap for how theory
can shape research, and vice versa, in years to come. Many
chapters also address connections between theories and
policy or practice. Each set of authors has been asked to
consider how theories in their area address matters of
diversity and inequalities in aging, and how theories
might be revised or tested with these matters in mind. The
third edition also contains a new section, "Standing on
the Shoulders of Giants", which includes personal essays
by senior gerontologists who share their perspectives on
the history of ideas in their fields, and on their
experiences with the process and prospects of developing
good theory. Hallmarks of the third edition: * Highlights
important gains in trans-disciplinary theories of aging.*
Emphasizes the future of theory development.* Provides
insights on theory development from living legends in
gerontology.* Examines what human diversity and inequality
mean for aging theories.* Emphasizes interconnections
between theory, research, intervention, and policy.*
Underscores international issues with greater
representation of international authors.* Includes section
introductions by the editors and associate editors that
summarize theoretical developments.Key Features: *
Highlights variability and diversity in aging processes,
from the cellular level of biological aging to the
societal level of public policy.* Provides insights on
theory development from living legends in gerontology.*
Offers intergenerational, interdisciplinary, and
international perspectives.*
