Recognizing the need for greater understanding and awareness of this population, the Handbook on Aging with Disability emerges as a groundbreaking resource. It is the first comprehensive compilation of knowledge about the experiences of aging with disability, offering a broad perspective that encompasses scholarship across different groups of individuals with disabilities. By examining commonalities and identifying unique aspects of aging within specific groups, the Handbook aims to enhance our understanding of the diverse experiences of this population.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDrawing from a diverse range of academic, personal, and clinical perspectives, the chapters in the Handbook address a wide range of topics related to the framing of the aging with disability experience, the heterogeneity of the population aging with disability, issues of social exclusion, health and wellness, frailty, later life, and policy contexts for aging with disability in various countries.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn response to the urgent need to increase access to knowledge in this field, the Handbook serves as a valuable guide for researchers, practitioners, and policy makers. It provides insights into what matters in delivering services, developing programs, and implementing policies that support individuals aging with long-term disabilities and their families. By highlighting the unique perspectives and experiences of this population, the Handbook contributes to the development of more inclusive and equitable aging policies and practices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 836g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 177 x 255 x 28 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367706388\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44104514568442,"sku":"9780367706388","price":44.73,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1676038941324_book.jpg?v=1676566755","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/handbook-on-ageing-with-disability-9780367706388","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
