Development tends to run counter to long-established cultural norms of family-based caring and filial piety, even as it also tends to lead to longer life expectancy. Taking a range of methodological and conceptual approaches to understanding these challenges, the contributors present a multifaceted understanding of elder care issues in both India and China. They focus in particular on caregiving within families and at care homes - and the impacts these have on quality of life and the experience of caregiving for both caregivers and the aged themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAn invaluable collection for scholars and students of gerontology and aging in Asia, that will also be of great interest to scholars with a broader interest in global trends in caregiving.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Longtao He\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032183799\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032183794\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 236\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.16lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.63d","brand":"Longtao He","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44070915997951,"sku":"9781032183794","price":170.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dda0196d-f15b-4ac7-a9c6-3aeb0ec192c9.jpg?v=1685433079","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/eldercare-issues-in-china-and-longtao-he-9781032183794","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
