Description
With an aging population and longer lives ahead, the future of work will be very different. Older adults will assume new roles and multi-generational workforces will proliferate. Retirement traditions and cultural norms will be toppled. Age will be incorporated in diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives. With The Rowman & Littlefield Handbook on Aging and Work, Elizabeth Fideler has assembled a cast of respected experts to advise on the challenges and opportunities in this shifting longevity landscape. It's a must read and a must reference.--Paul Irving, Chairmen, Milken Institute Center for the Future of Aging; Distinguished Scholar in Residence, USC Davis School of Gerontology
