Ageing does not need to be hidden or denied but can be understood, affirmed and experienced as a process of growth. In the first chapter of this dissertation, the various physical, psychological and social changes that occur in an ageing person will be discussed.

It is not a slow decaying but a gradual maturing; not a fate to be undergone but a choice to be embraced. [...] | en_GB |
