Sixteen chapters by scholars of social work relate the well-being of older adults to social work practice and the current model of service delivery. Chapters concentrate on issues affecting the health of older adults (depression, dementia, abuse), services to specific populations (African American women, grandparents raising grandchildren, the developmentally disabled), and professional issues (home care, case management, standardized assessment). The implications for training, research, and policy are highlighted. Annotation (c)2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).
