Dear All,
This is a follow-up to an email we sent a few months ago.
My colleague, Professor Doreen Elliott of the University of Texas at
Arlington (USA), and I are co-editing a four volume series entitled
Refugees Worldwide to be published by Praeger Publishers. We are still
looking for someone who may be willing to write a chapter entitled,
"Elder Refugee Health."
The aim of this series is to provide the readership with an up-to-date
global and, concurrently, international perspective of the issue under
consideration. Chapters are generally expected to range from 8,000 to
10,000 words, while they should draw on relevant literature, we hope
that they will be written in non-jargon language so that they are
readily understandable lay readers. Vignettes, in particular, or fuller
case studies are very helpful in illustrating points.
We are especially interested in ensuring that the chapter provides a
global/worldwide context and provides comparative data and analyses
focusing on two or more countries in greater depth.
We would be most grateful if any of you is willing to write on elder
refugee health or can point us to someone who may be willing to do so.
Please contact either of us directly at [log in to unmask] or
[log in to unmask] and we will forward you more specific details.
Please send replies to: [log in to unmask]
Your assistance will be most welcome. Thank you in advance.
Sincerely,
Uma A. Segal
