Descripción
Sumario:Older people in the countryside are vastly under-researched compared to those living in urban areas. This volume describes the impetus for and principal findings and policy implications of the Grey and Pleasant Land (GaPL) project, a recent major interdisciplinary study of rural ageing in southwest England and Wales. The topic of this research is older people's participation in rural community life, in particular the ways in which rural elders are connected to their communities and their contributions to rural civic society.
