Ageing in urban neighbourhoods: Place attachment and social exclusion - Ageing and the Lifecourse Series
Allison E. Smith
This book addresses the shortfall in knowledge regarding older people's attachment to deprived neighbourhoods, offering a re-conceptualisation of environmental gerontology. The author examines new research, challenging the common view that ageing 'in place' is optimal, particularly within areas that present multiple risks to the individual.
