Drawing from the expertise of anthropologists, philosophers, and an artist, this comprehensive volume poses the question: How can imagistic inquiries aid in our understanding of the intricate interplay between self and other, dependence and independence, vulnerability and charisma, notions of good and bad aging, and care practices in old age? Moreover, how can imagistic inquiries serve as a basis for critique?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis volume employs a multi-faceted approach, blending ethnography, phenomenology, and art, to offer a profound contribution to our understanding of aging. Through the use of images created through words and drawings, it complicates rather than simplifies the world we inhabit. The contributors to this volume advance a nuanced understanding of care and aging, characterized by alterity, spectral presences, and uncertainty.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe contributors to Imagistic Care are:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRasmus Dyring\u003cbr\u003eHarmandeep Kaur Gill\u003cbr\u003eLone Grøn\u003cbr\u003eMaria Louw\u003cbr\u003eCheryl Mattingly\u003cbr\u003eLotte Meinert\u003cbr\u003eMaria Speyer\u003cbr\u003eHelle S.
