520			_aBook Summary of An Aging India: Perspectives, Prospects And Policies This pathbreaking collection provides something that has been missing in the literature on aging in India: studies of various aspects of aging in India combined with analyses of current policies, policy trends and recommendations. It examines aging issues from a variety of perspectives -demographic foundations, social and family relations, economics, health and disability, current interventions, and advocacy and policy. "An Aging India" also provides up-to-date references, explanations of differences and similarities within India's diverse population, examples of programs in various settings including a geriatric hospital, a major NGO, and old-age homes, and an overview of the development of India's national policy on aging. This book will certainly prove to be a valuable addition for all scholars and planners working in this field.
