NEW TITLES THIS MONTH
*********************
'Pensions' by Michael Hill is the first book in our new Policy and Politics
in the Twenty-First Century series. It provides a much-needed introductory
guide to the issues surrounding pension policy and offers a critique of
some of the dominant ideas and assumptions. For more information please see

Another new series, Ageing and the Lifecourse, kicks off this month with
'Critical perspectives on ageing societies', edited by Miriam Bernard and
Thomas Scharf. This book brings together some of the best known
international scholars working within a critical gerontology perspective to
review and update our understanding of how the field has developed over the
last twenty-five years. It provides a challenging assessment of the complex
practical and ethical issues facing older people, and those who conduct
research on ageing, in the 21st century. Please see more information at

'Growing up with risk', edited by Betsy Thom, Rosemary Sales and Jenny
Pearce, provides a critical analysis of ways in which risk assessment and
management are defined and applied in policy, theory and practice in
relation to children and young people. Further details on this title can be
found at
