Overview

This comprehensive bibliography lists more than 700 books, journal articles and dissertations on religion and aging. While most of the items are scholarly studies, works of interest to the general reader are also included. Detailed annotations describe the contents of each entry. The bulk of the material is from Jewish and Christian traditions. However, the bibliography also includes resources from other faiths. The result is a fascinating chronicle of the interaction among the young and the old in diverse communities of faith and a clear indication of those areas that still require additional research. The book begins with an informative introduction that overviews trends in religion and aging and summarizes the contents of the bibliography. The bibliographic entries are grouped in ten topical chapters, each of which is devoted to a particular aspect of religion and the older adult. The thorough author and subject indexes conclude the work and add to its utility as a ready source of information.
