Dear colleagues,

 

Some of you may be interested to know about a new book series I am editing with Sarah Vickerstaff, ‘Rethinking Work, Ageing and Retirement’ (Bristol University Press). We are seeking book proposals that explore the impact of extended working lives on older people and organisations. Inevitably, this has important implications for social policy.

 

We expect the series to cover areas such as the management of older workers and their experiences in employment; the changing financial context of work and retirement; and the impact of health, technology, training, caring and volunteering on employment in older age.

 

Further details are here:

If you are interested in putting a book proposal together for the series please get in touch!

 

All the best,

 

Dave
