"Edited by experts in ageing and social affairs, this book provides a thought-provoking text based on evidence of the disadvantages to which older adults may be exposed and suggests a useful range of actions that could be taken to address inequalities." Susan Holmes in Nursing Standard "I have rarely come across a book on the included subjects so well written that I did not want to put it down until it was read to the end". Susan Venn in Ageing & Society "...as a shout of rage against the injustices of getting old, the book should come to the attention of those wanting the votes of Britain's 20 million older people in the coming election." John Perry in 'Housing' "This is a book for our times: its wisdom and thoughtfulness will help us all adjust to life's changing patterns." Dame Joan Bakewell, Voice of Older People "Unequal Ageing is a must-read for everyone concerned with growing imbalances in care and support of the older person. With chapter contributions from leaders in their fields, this book examines the inequalities experienced by ageing populations from a variety of perspectives - let us hope policy makers and informers read, absorb and take remedial action." Alex Mair, Chief Executive, British Geriatrics Society
