Recenzii

As both an academic social gerontologist and great-grandfather I can thoroughly recommend this ground-breaking book. It opens up a much needed new perspective by confronting outdated stereotypes, revealing a world where family doesn't simply mean parents and young children. Professor John Vincent, Department of Sociology and Philosophy, University of Exeter
