About this ebook
In this volume, dedicated to M. Powell Lawton, the editors emphasize the need to create new bridges to connect research studies focusing on objective physical environments and other studies mainly addressing subjective person-environment components. Thus the major goal of this volume is to provide and stimulate multi-directional bridge-building from the perspectives of multidisciplinary contributors. Comprehensively addressed subjects include:
- Aging in Context Across the Adult Life
- The General Ecological Model Revisited
- The Fit Between Older People and Their Environments
- Domestic Arrangements
- The Impact of Population Migration
- Interior Environments
- Residential Satisfaction
- Technology Based Products
