Hardback. Condition: New. Never before in human existence have the aged been so numerous - and for the most part - healthy. In this important new book, two professionals, an anthropologist and a physician, wrestle with the complex subject of aging. Is it inevitable? Is it a burden or gift? What is successful aging? Why are some people better at aging than others? Where is aging located? How does it vary among individuals, within and between groups, cultures, societies, and indeed, over the centuries? Reflecting on these and other questions, the authors comment on the impact age has in their lives and work. Two unique viewpoints are presented. While medicine approaches aging with special attention given to the body, its organs, and its functions over time, anthropology focuses on how the aged live within their cultural settings. As this volume makes clear, the two disciplines have a great deal to teach each other, and in a spirited exchange, the authors show how professional barriers can be surmounted. In a novel approach, each author explores a different aspect of aging in alternating chapters. These chapters are in turn followed by a commentary by the other. Further, the authors interrupt each other within the chapters - to raise questions, contradict, ask for clarification, and explore related ideas - with these interjections emphasizing the dynamic nature of their ideas about age. Finally, a third "voice" - that of a random old man - periodically inserts itself into the text to remind the authors of their necessarily limited understanding of the subject.

First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Fine condition color photographic softcover wraps. Includes Credits; Foreword by David Richards, former drama critic of The New York Times and The Washington Post; Introduction by Howard Shalwitz; About Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company; Acknowledgments; and Production History. "The Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company of Washington, D.C. is one of America's most fearless producers of new plays, with an impressive record of premieres that have gone on to be produced across the country and around the world. "The plays it has always championed - and done best - are dark, scratchy, outspoken and eager to buck both the status quo and theatrical convention," says critic David Richards in his Foreword to this collection of six Woolly premiers. Amy Freed's The Psychic Life of Savages, winner of both the Kesserlring Prize and Charles MacArthur Award, is a witty and dazzling dissection of the lives of four famously obsessive mid-century poets. Robert Alexander's The Last Orbit of Billy Mars in an intimate, ultimately shocking glimpse at a secretive black family living on the edge of a St. Louis highway. By contrast, Christi Stewar-Brown's lighter-than-air comedy, The Gene Pool, introduces an unusually open family with two moms, while simultaneously spoofing the traditional family sitcom. A tour de force for one actor, Stanley Rutherford's award-winning The Chinese Art of Placement virtually defines Woolly's fascination with neurotically funny characters who don't seem to fit in. Billy Aronson's endearing romance, The Art Room, re-imagines a classic Feydeau farce in a topsy-turvy mental ward setting. And Regina Porter's powerful black Southern drama, Man, Woman, Dinosaur, unites two unlikely lovers in a desperate effort to free themselves from the mysterious pull of the past. What emerges from these remarkable new plays is Woolly Mammoth's obsession with original voices, its readiness to deal with controversy, and most surprisingly, its focus on big old-fashioned issues - love, longing, family ties, self-expression, madness - from unexpected new angles.".
