Synopsis "Annual Review of Gerontology and Geriatrics, Volume 39, 2019: Men'S Health and Aging: Contemporary Issues, Emerging Perspectives, and Future Directions"
This thirty-ninth volume of Annual Review of Gerontology and Geriatrics focuses on men's health and aging. Cutting-edge chapters discuss the different complex factors that can lead to advancing our understanding on older men's health. The volume is organized in two sections: contemporary issues, and emerging perspectives about men's health and aging. The insightful chapters in the first section explore issues such as how experiences with social institutions earlier in life have an impact on men in late life, health and well-being of military veterans, biological determinants of men's health, and mental health of older men. The exciting chapters in the emerging perspectives section focus on pain, social isolation, and stress and faith as it relates to men's health in later life.The life expectancy of men aged 65 and older is increasing, and, as a result, there is a need to better understand how to maintain the independence and quality of life for older men. The contributions in this volume provide state-of-the-art science and keen insights into some future opportunities for intervening, promoting, and understanding older men's health.Key Features: Social Change, Social Institutions, and Cohorts: Contextualizing Men's Health in Later LifeThe Health of Male Veterans in Later LifeBiological Determinants of Men's Health and AgingMental Health of Older MenSocial Isolation, Loneliness, and Health Among Older MenStress, Faith, and Health Among Middle-Aged and Older African American Men
