520    "This book provides the first comprehensive study of the 
       emotional, social, institutional, family, embodied and 
       narrated lives of older people across twentieth century 
       Britain. It demonstrates not just that older lives matter 
       historically but also that old age is itself historically 
       contingent and has been actively constituted in tandem 
       with particular welfare and medical discourses. It also 
       offers important insights into the ways in which social 
       scientists constituted the topics of their research 
       through their need to extrapolate from experience to 
       abstraction, for the purposes of policy recommendation. In
       fact, it suggests the near impossibility of the task that 
       social science set itself in this period: to respect 
       individual experience while moving beyond it. Finally, the
       book feeds into broader historiographical discussions 
       concerning the relationship between the 'expert' and 
       'experience' in this period. Returning to the data 
       generated alongside the resulting analysis, Greenhalgh 
       places the understandings--and lived experiences--of 
       individuals within this broad age category center stage in
       a way that is both moving and intellectually enlightening"
