Recenzii
"Ryan and Coughlan are to be congratulated for editing a highly accessible book on ageing and mental health. This volume should be required reading on all postgraduate courses for mental health professionals who are being trained to provide services to older adults with psychological problems." - Alan Carr, University College Dublin, Ireland
"This is a scholarly book that should be read by all in the caring professions, especially those working with older people. It explodes myths and encourages new perceptions of our ageing population and new insight into how they are valued and cared for. It is sobering to read that their unmet needs have changed little in the past 20 years." - Jenny Bloomer, Therapy Today, February 2012
"...this is a stimulating, readable and useful addition to the existing range of texts in this field of practice, with a couple of chapters that are outstanding and novel, and I believe add something new and exciting. These will really challenge readers to reflect upon and as a result develop their own approach to practice. It is therefore a book that deserves to do well and has the potential to make a significant contribution to the care of older adults with mental health issues." - Barry Aveyard, Ageing & Society, Volume 32, 2012

"Ageing and Older Adult Mental Health: Issues and Implications for Practice should be consulted frequently by students, educators, and practitioners of gerontological care. The content in the book focuses on biological, psychological, and cultural concepts concerning ageing and is particularly key to the work of mental health professionals. As one reads the book, its informative benefits to all geriatric health care providers, not just mental health professionals, becomes obvious. In fact, although it is a scholarly book with much reference to empirical evidence, any educated individual who wants to become more informed on all practical aspects of ageing can gain much insight from picking out chapters to read in this book."-Shelley C. Moore, Activities, Adaptation & Aging, 38:248–258, 2014
