Elder Abuse

Elder Abuse gathers the most important presentation papers from the Prague World Congress on Family Violence. The papers report the latest research on the mistreatment of older people and set out detailed information on the difficult issues involved, as they arise in different countries.

Because the contributions come from international authorities, the collection shows how the problem is studied and understood across different parts of the world. It is aimed at readers who want current research on the subject rather than a picture of one country alone.

Published by Routledge, with ISBN-13 9780789028235. The book was edited as a set of selected papers from the congress.
