“The beauty of this important book lies in its conclusion… This book provides the roadmap that has led us to our current dilemmas and offers the path forward to a truly just society for all.”
―Terry Fulmer, PhD, RN, FAAN, President of The John A. Hartford Foundation
"This deeply insightful book is essential reading not only for anyone who works with or on behalf of older adults, but also for everyone who committed to any aspect of social justice and human rights."
―Chris Herman, MSW, LICSW
"Lisa Nerenberg provides the first comprehensive look at elder abuse prevention trends and strategies..."
―Georgia Anetzberger, Consultant, Adjunct Faculty, Schools of Medicine and Applied Social Sciences, Case Western Reserve University
Delivering the first comprehensive analysis of elder justice and its implications for policy and practice, this book offers a promising approach that ensures the rights, safety, and security of all older Americans. It explains the antecedents of elder justice in the fields of elder abuse, aging, and public health, and describes the opportunities for achieving more comprehensive, cohesive, and integrated public policy.
The text examines the cumulative impact of ageism, racism, sexism, heterosexism, class, and other forms of disadvantage and isolation on the lives of older adults and how these contribute to poverty, disease, disability, abuse, and neglect. It draws from the fields of public health and health equity, and plans devised by international organizations that frame elder abuse as a human rights issue. Practical and achievable goals in the prevention of elder abuse aid policy makers, program developers, grant-makers, and service providers in the fields of gerontology, social work, public health, and nursing in their efforts towards elder abuse prevention.
