{"product_id":"aging-issues-in-the-united-seiritsu-ogura-9780226620817","title":"Aging Issues in the United States and Japan","description":"The population base in both the United States and Japan is growing older and, as those populations age, they provoke heretofore unexamined economic consequences. This cutting-edge, comparative volume, the third in the joint series offered by the National Bureau of Economic Research and the Japan Center for Economic Research, explores those consequences, drawing specific attention to four key areas: incentives for early retirement; savings, wealth, and asset allocation over the life cycle; health care and health care reform; and population projections. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eGiven the undeniable global importance of the Japanese and U.S. economies, these innovative essays shed welcome new light on the complex correlations between aging and economic behavior. This insightful work not only deepens our understanding of the Japanese and American economic landscapes but, through careful examination of the comparative social and economic data, clarifies the complex relation between aging societies, public policies, and economic outcomes. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Seiritsu Ogura\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0226620816\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780226620817\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.31h x 6.35w x 1.09d","brand":"Seiritsu Ogura","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48086419767551,"sku":"9780226620817","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_316baded-54fa-43fd-984f-dad605b60d02.jpg?v=1769094568","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/aging-issues-in-the-united-seiritsu-ogura-9780226620817","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
