Analysing Ageing in India in Regional and Global Context by Mala Kapur Shankardass
India's population is rapidly ageing, with the number of elderly people expected to double by 2050, representing approximately 20% of the total population. This book highlights ageing issues in India from a wider perspective, bringing in national, regional and global contexts in one frame. It provides a comprehensive analysis of ageing while examining the socio-demographic and epidemiological transitions taking place in this century.
The book connects global ageing issues to the Indian context while discussing the challenges and responses towards making a society for all ages. It presents previously uncovered subjects like feminization of ageing, gender-focused empowerment of older adults, medical gerontology growth, informal care needs, and mental well-being as interconnected themes, offering comprehensive insights for contemporary challenges concerning the older population. With expert contributors offering extensive analysis through fresh perspectives, this volume effectively combines theoretical frameworks with practical applications that move beyond conventional approaches to ageing and advance our understanding.
The book would be of interest to researchers and academics working on ageing, social work, health and social care, sociology & social policy, and public health policy and practice. It would also appeal to community workers and non-government organization personnel.

"I was paying $11.99/month for Kindle Unlimited but realized I was renting books, not owning them. Bought this PDF and it's mine forever. Never going back to Kindle."
"Switched from Kindle to these PDFs. Same book, but I actually OWN it now. No monthly fees, no app required. Worth every penny."
"Kindle Unlimited kept raising prices. This is a one-time purchase and the file is permanently on my iPad. Best decision I've made for my reading habit."
"I compared Kindle vs this store. Kindle is cheaper monthly but you don't own anything. Here I paid once and the PDF is mine for life. Highly recommend."
"Left Kindle behind after they removed a book I was reading mid-series. With this PDF, nobody can take it away from me. True ownership feels good."
"Was skeptical about paying $18.95 when Kindle shows $3.99, but then I did the math — Kindle Unlimited is $143/year! This is way better value long term."
"Love that I can read this on any device without installing the Kindle app. The PDF works on my laptop, phone, and tablet seamlessly. So much freedom."
"My Kindle subscription was getting expensive. Switched to buying PDFs here and I'm saving money while actually building a permanent digital library I control."
