The Long History of Old Age by Pat Thane
This is an illustrated social history that traces the way Western society has treated old people throughout history. It is a human story of great contemporary resonance, in which patient historical detective work demolishes both our own prejudices and the propaganda of the past, and coaxes new insights from a variety of sources.
Pat Thane is Professor of Contemporary History, Institute of Historical Research, University of London. Among her previous books is Old Age in English History (OUP, 2002).
