      abstract = {Age as Disease explores the foundations of gerontology as  a discipline to examine the ways contemporary society  constructs old age as a disease-state. Framed throughout as  gerontological hygeine, this book examines contemporary  regimes, strategies and treatment protocols deployed  throughout Australia, the United States, and the United  Kingdom. The book deploys critical cultural theories such  as biopolitics, somatechnics, ethics, and governmentality  to examine how anti-aging technologies operate to  problematise the aging body as always-already diseased, and  how these come to constitute a movement of abolition, named  here as gerontological hygiene.},
