Mental health and well-being in later life [E-book] - Maidenhead Open University Press 2009
This book looks broadly at the mental health and wellbeing issues that affect adults in later life. Taking a holistic approach to mental health and mental health promotion, the book explores the debates around what is meant by mental health and mental illness and the wider social determinants of mental health. A range of examples from the UK and other countries, along with insights gained from older people's own perspectives, are used to emphasise the evidence base for effective interventions to promote mental health.
