The reader will be made aware of intergenerational interactions between older adults and other family members in various cultures. The role of ethnicity and socio-economic status in health issues of older adults will be discussed, as will the application of technology to an ageing population. Though problems certainly exist as one ages, the overall thrust of the book is toward the positive aspects of growing old.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNumerous theories exist to probe research and understanding of older adults in families. The relation between theory and research will be helpful to many students of ageing in the family. Older adults are generally married, yet cohabitation and other options are alive and well too.
