- Summary:
- Newly revised and updated! In this second edition, Brody and Semel contend that meaningful and successful therapy can be accomplished with an aging population, debunking the belief that the elderly can not pick up or put into practice newly acquired information. Rather, the way in which therapy with aging adults is approached may affect the way in which the therapist initially experiences and reacts to the client because of stereotypes about aging.: This book encompasses three major areas of work with elderly clients aged 60 years and older:.; Living in nursing homes; Living in assisted living
