Profs. Doron and Mewhinney publish collection of international documents relating to rights of the elderly
Received from Dr. Israel Doron, Haifa University:
It is with great pleasure that I am letting you know that a new book, which I and Prof. Kate Mewhinney have edited, has just been published.

International Documents".
The book (pub
lished by a collaboration of: IFA –
International Federati
on on Aging; AGE Concern UK; ILC India; and JDC-ESHEL
in Israel) provides a unique collection of all the main, important international
documents relating, at the international level, to the status of the aged and
the phenomenon of ageing. For the first time, readers, the aged and
professionals all over the world can obtain a comprehensive picture of the
worldwide activities in the field of international law and
ageing.
The link for
further details and for purchasing is the following:

I believe this
book could be very helpful for anyone in the field of elder law get an
international-comparative perspective on the international documents relating to
older persons.
