This second edition of the highly successful handbook builds on the first by offering a comprehensive, engaging, and up-to-date treatment of developments within the field of the sociology of aging. Beyond presenting an overview and update of foundational matters like advancements in theory and methodology, this edition addresses cutting-edge topics not covered in the first edition. These encompass intersectionality, sexuality, dementia, kinless aging, online social connectedness, grandparenting, death and dying, older adults in the workplace, politics, and the criminal justice system. It also considers aging in the context of crises, highlighting how the recent COVID-19 pandemic and environmental risks intersect with age-related policy, care, and inequality. This edition also extends the handbook's global reach, featuring 13 chapters with contributing authors based outside the United States.Including chapters from both established and emerging scholars, this handbook is the go-to reference for students, scholars, and practitioners interested in the implications of aging for individuals, families, and societies.
