520    Most people over 50 are grandparents, but few have 
       preparation for this significant role. In Being Grandma 
       and Grandpa, sociologist Emily Stier Adler and 
       psychologist Michele Hoffnung draw on their professional 
       knowledge, their own experiences as involved grandparents 
       of 10 grandchildren between them, and interviews with more
       than two hundred active grandmothers and grandfathers, to 
       describe contemporary grandparenthood and offer advice. 
       The authors offer important tips to encourage new 
       grandparents and aid those who want new approaches to 
       problems they have encountered.
