What They're Saying

Critics Review

‘This important book shows that achieving age equity necessitates acknowledging the diversity within older populations and ensuring decent conditions for paid and unpaid carers.’ Teppo Kröger, University of Jyväskylä

‘This volume documents the absence of an equity lens across all domains of age studies. It challenges us to penetrate data and discourse to locate immiseration.’ Sheila Neysmith, University of Toronto
