Older Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Trans People: Minding the Knowledge Gaps
Editat de Andrew King, Kathryn Almack, Yiu-Tung Suen, Sue Westwooden Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 iun 2020
Informed by a range of theoretical perspectives, empirical research studies, critical observations as well as lived experiences, this book explores areas of LGBT ageing that have been under-studied. These include: bisexual ageing; trans ageing and older trans people’s mental health; ethnicity, culture and religion in the lives of older LGBT people and gaps in knowledge about older LGBT people from minority ethnic communities; intergenerational networks; residential and end-of-life care; and the effects of austerity on services.
Written in an accessible style, this book is essential for researchers and policy makers interested in the lives of older LGBT people, people who work with older people and teachers and students interested in ageing, gender identity and sexuality.
