    The Editors of the volume, together with expert contributors from Australasia, Canada, Europe, UK, US, and elsewhere, adopt an interdisciplinary approach to the study of law, society and ageing to improve understanding on key issues in these fields. Organised thematically, chapters examine issues such as law, ageing and human rights; specialist legal services for older people; work and pensions; access to justice; health and wellbeing; care and support. Written in an accessible style, the Research Handbook on Law, Society and Ageing recognises diversity amongst older people and their various social contexts, showcasing debates on how these complexities should be addressed.

    Broad in scope and including contributions from a wide range of social, legal, gerontological, health, social welfare and social work disciplines, this Research Handbook is invaluable for scholars and practitioners in law, health, and social care. Activists and those interested in advocating for the rights of older people will also find the wide-ranging topics to be highly informative.
