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" --Provided by publisher. 588 0 Online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on August 29, 2018). 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Older people|zGreat Britain.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008108639 650 7 Older people.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1199093 651 7 Great Britain.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204623 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aGreenhalgh, Charlotte, 1983-|tAging in twentieth-century Britain.|dOakland, California : University of California Press, [2018]|z9780520298781 |w(DLC) 2018002049 830 0 Berkeley series in British studies ;|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/no2011084753|v12. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1823467|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
