The Age of the Elderly
Today's sixty-year old hardly resembles the old man of the past. Demographic history since the seventeenth century, reread with the fresh eye of P. Bourdelais, reveals to what extent notions of the elderly and aging have changed. His book is a crucial new contribution to current historical and social debates. P. Bourdelais is the Research Director of the CNRS.
