From Booklist
As Americans grow older, where they will live is an imporant question facing them. While many plan to stay in their own homes, others no longer want the responsibilities of maintenance and upkeep. Others may need assistance in caring for themselves. As the number of older persons increases, so do the varieties of need and choices available. Cleveland, host of a New England^-based radio program dealing with older Americans' interests, pictures differing lifestyles that she says are representative of today's older people, and describes and contrasts corresponding housing options: living with one's children, resort communities, high-rises, assisted-living facilities, and continuing-care retirement communities. She attempts to allay the understandable reservations and concerns faced by those who decide to give up their homes, and she provides helpful checklists to evaluate financial considerations involved.

From Publishers Weekly
Elder Law: A Legal and Financial Guide for Caregivers and Seniors by Peter J. Strauss and Nancy M. Lederman addresses the particular needs of the fastest-growing segment of the population. As they age, seniors "face the possibility of reduced spending power, rising health care and insurance costs, loss of health benefits both on the job and in retirement, pensions in jeopardy, and changing house needs." This new area of law has evolved to handle the legal and management problems that may result from aging, illness or incapacity. (Facts on File, $14.95 ISBN 0-8160-3410-9; cloth $25.95 -3082-0; Sept.)
