Average Rating: 
Rating: - good text
Book has lots of information. Shows different conclusions when results of studies are dissimilar. Lots of references. Used as text for a class. Well organized.
Rating: - Good book, interesting stats...
I am only a few chapters into this book so far, but it seems to be a good read. I have already learned several new things about aging and look forward to my continued reading. My only complaint so far is that while interesting, I think that there are too many statistics. This kind of takes away the importance of some of the more pertinent facts and would be far too many to memorize.
Rating: - College level geriatrics book
This book is simple to read and it covers all topics related with aging and geriatrics. I think this is a good source, but last semester I used one by John Cavanaugh and I considered that one a level higher than thisone. I mean this is a general topic book. I bouth it for my Social Work with the Elderly college class, and I don't really consider it too deep in the topic of social Work, but more a generalized information book.
Rating: - Very Informative
Text is laid out very well, easy to read. There is a lot of good information in this book related to aging--physical, emotional, cognitive and social factors. The chapters are organized by topic with a lot of graphs and research info. to back it up. The only negative I have is that there is a lot of research data in the text which can get make reading all of it a little boring.
