Highly Recommend for Anyone Interested in Adult Devleopment

This is a great book for anyone interested in the general topics concerning adult development and aging. I used this book in my Psychology of Aging class at UCLA and found it very easy to read and understand. The biopsychosocial perspective takes into account all areas of life and is a great place to begin understanding the challenges we face as adults as we age and also what preventative measure we can employ early in adulthood to increases our chances of living a longer, healthier, more productive life.

Learning to Understand the Aging Environment

This text provides detailed information on what happens as we age. It's a little scary - but it certainly gives us insight and skills into working most effectively with the changes caused by aging. It helped me personally to deal better with my Mom, by altering my speech patterns and communication of events. It also lets you see the importance of all the devices out there to assist the elderly - and in turn, encourage the use of these tools.
