Description
"Women in Late Life explores the thorny issues related to gender and aging, including prevailing but problematic cultural expectations, body image, ageism, the experience of chronic illness, threats to Social Security, and the very possibility of a secure retirement while challenging a long-term care system that disadvantages women. Author Martha Holstein blends personal narrative and interviews with critique and proposals aimed at resisting damaging inequities resulting from being simultaneously old and a woman." -- Back Cover
