Synopsis:
Singular Paths, based extensively on interviews, breaks fresh ground by describing specifically the situations, experiences, and feelings of the often-overlooked single and widowed elderly male. Robert L. Rubinstein suggests that these men must be viewed as individuals and it is this approach which colors the presentation of his research findings. He shows how older men find enjoyment in life using personal and social resources and existing opportunities.
About the Author: Robert L. Rubinstein is senior research anthropologist in the Behavioral Research Department at the Philadelphia Geriatric Center.
