About the Book

A thorough, multidisciplinary review of the diverse process of aging and the current research surrounding it
The best-selling Revel(TM) Social Gerontology: A Multidisciplinary Perspective presents the diversities of the aging experience -- the interaction between the physiological, cognitive, emotional, interpersonal, social, and cultural forces on aging, as well as the heterogeneity of the older population in terms of age, race, class, gender, functional ability, and sexual orientation. The Tenth Edition explores new research connecting the relationship between older people and their environments, and its impact on their quality of life and overall well-being. The text also captures profound changes in societal views, and provides critical information about growing economic disparities among the older population.

Revel is Pearson's newest way of delivering our respected content. Fully digital and highly engaging, Revel replaces the textbook and gives students everything they need for the course. Informed by extensive research on how people read, think, and learn, Revel is an interactive learning environment that enables students to read, practice, and study in one continuous experience -- for less than the cost of a traditional textbook.

NOTE: Revel is a fully digital delivery of Pearson content. This ISBN is for the standalone Revel access card. In addition to this access card, you will need a course invite link, provided by your instructor, to register for and use Revel.

About the Author: Nancy R. Hooyma n holds the Hooyman Professorship of Gerontology and is Dean Emeritus at the School of Social Work at the University of Washington. Her MSW and PhD in sociology and social work are from the University of Michigan. She is nationally recognized for her scholarship in aging and multigenerational policy and practice, gender inequities in family caregiving, and feminist gerontology. In addition to this textbook, Dr. Hooyman is the co-author of Living through Loss: Interventions across the Life Span; Taking Care of Aging Family Members; and Feminist Perspectives on Family Care: Policies for Gender Justice, and editor of Transforming Social Work Education: The First Decade of the Hartford Geriatric Social Work Initiative.

She has published over 130 articles and chapters and is a frequent national and international presenter on issues related to gerontology, multigenerational perspectives in aging, and older women. She is co-principal investigator of the Council on Social Work Education's National Center for Gerontological Social Work Education, which for 15 years advanced gerontological competencies and content in social work curriculum. A fellow in the Gerontological Society of America, Dr. Hooyman is past-chair of GSA's Social Research, Policy and Practice Section. She received the Significant Lifetime Achievement in Social Work Education Award from the Council on Social Work Education in 2009 and was inducted into the American Academy of Social Work and Social Welfare in 2010.

H. Asuman Kiyak (1951-2011) was director of the University of Washington Institute on Aging, professor in the School of Dentistry, and adjunct professor in the Departments of Architecture and Psychology at the University of Washington. She obtained her MA and PhD in psychology at Wayne State University. Professor Kiyak was the recipient of major research grants -- from NIH, CDC, AOA, the State of Washington, and private foundations -- in the areas of health promotion and health service utilization by older adults, as well as in person-environment adaptation to Alzheimer's disease by patients and their caregivers.

She published over 130 articles and 35 chapters in these areas and was known nationally and internationally for her research on geriatric dental care and the application of psychological theory to health promotion. In 2000, she received the Distinguished Scientist Award from the International Association for Dental Research and served as president of the Geriatric Oral Research and the Behavioral Sciences and Health Services Research Groups of IADR. Dr. Kiyak was principal investigator of a large clinical trial in geriatric dentistry, funded by the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research, and of two studies of a community-based health promotion study funded by the CDC. In 2003, she was named Distinguished Professor of Geriatrics at UCLA and received the Teaching Excellence Award from the University of Washington Educational Outreach division. Professor Kiyak was a fellow in the Gerontological Society of America.
