Practitioners in human resource development must be informed about how older persons behave, learn, and what they value. This practical guide provides an overview of current gerontological theory and research and an overview of principles of adult education. It is specifically designed to address the needs of a wide range of practitioners and adult educators, and provides basic information and practical strategies. This book is intended to inform a wide audience of adult learners about aging, adult education, intervention strategies for different levels of needs in older persons, and specific discipline-driven categories of workers.
