Beth B. Hess is professor of political science at the County College of Morris, in Randolph, New Jersey. She is author of numerous books on aging and social gerontology.
“Diversity within a group in mental and behavioral functions increases with age. Aging as a phenomenon is further differentiated in that it affects and is affected by a variety of established disciplines. . . . In Growing Old in America (second edition) Hess manages gerontological fairness while still capturing the dynamics of the aging experiences. . . . Each section holds distinguished scholarship. . . . The great functional variety of aging experiences is amply documented here. . . . Hess argues for ‘doing something about it,’ and substantiates the potency and value of a social gerontology.”
—Edward F. Ansello, Contemporary Sociology
