This book presents a kaleidoscopic view of the positive layers of ageing as well as key interventions that can help generate and maintain positivity and well-being among the elderly. It explores the connections of ageing with spirituality, nature and existentialism, and leisure to encourage creativity, individuation, happiness, and emotional detachment. It further examines various interventions such as end-of-life care, mindfulness and yoga, retrospection, life review, and so on, which may improve the overall quality of life by promoting the health of the elderly individual.The book focuses on authentic ageing, transpersonal gerontology, the concept of the elder child, geriatric interventions, and caregiving, and suggests practical improvements in health and facilities for the elderly. It also covers aspects of the inner life of the prolonged ailing or dying person from a mental health perspective and emphasizes the value of positive ageing. A guide to applied geriatrics and geriatric psychology, with its simple style and clear methods in end-to-end praxis, the book shows how mental well-being can be fostered in the elderly to help them find meaning and purpose in old age.This book will interest students, teachers, and researchers of psychology, positive psychology, geropsychology and gerontological studies, sociology and social work, public health, medical education, and geriatric nursing.

The book presents a concise yet comprehensive exploration of key object relations theories and their relevance in contemporary society. It traces the impact of early interactions with the ‘mothering person’ on the infant’s psychic development and examines psychogenic pathology as a manifestation of self-arrest shaped by anxiety-driven object attachments.This volume engages with Melanie Klein’s matriarchal formulation of object relations, Balint’s relational framework, Mahler’s concepts of symbiosis and separation–individuation, and Winnicott’s existential orientation. The text further provides critical insights into Fairbairn’s dynamic trinity, Bion’s movement toward psycho spiritual understanding, and Bowlby’s ethological emphasis on attachment and dependency. Kohut’s self-psychological view of narcissistic energies is examined alongside Kernberg’s ego psychological object relations model and Chodorow’s feminist analysis of gender and culture. It concludes with a critical comparative appraisal of the selected theories.Written in clear and accessible language, the book offers practical guidance to the praxis of object relational psychoanalysis through illustrative case vignettes. It is intended as an enriching resource for psychoanalytic practitioners, theorists, faculty, research scholars, and postgraduate students, and serves as a valuable reference for allied disciplines including psychology, philosophy, psychiatry, social work, public health, medical education, and psychiatric nursing.
