Successful Aging as a Contemporary Obsession
Global Perspectives
Edited by Sarah Lamb; Epilogue by Susan Reynolds Whyte
Rutgers University Press
Successful Aging as a Contemporary Obsession exposes and complicates contemporary readings of successful aging, questioning and defamiliarizing Western visions of the place of old age in the life course. This volume brings fresh insight and international perspectives that expand our collective imagination about what it is to age, and, by extension, to live.

Aspiring in Later Life
Movements across Time, Space, and Generations
Rutgers University Press
While aspirations are most often connected to younger people, this volume argues that people do not stop aspiring in older age. Aspiring in Later Life brings together rich ethnographic cases from different regions of the world, offering original insights into how aspirations are pursued over the course of life and in contexts of globalization and mobility.
