By considering the unique combinations of discrimination that arise from the interrelationship of age and gender, pensions, ethnicity, sexual orientation, socio-economic class and disability, the contributors demonstrate that the discrimination suffered is multiple in nature. It is the combination of these characteristics that leads to the need for more complex ways of tackling age discrimination"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000439788 520__ $$a"This book is about the diversity of older people and the discrimination that results. Older people are often stereotyped according to their age. Age stereotyping is concerned with associating certain characteristics, or the lack of them, with certain ages. It in effect homogenises the particular age group as being all the same, rather than recognising any diversity within that age group (Robinson, Gustafson, and Popovich 2008). There is an impression that older people share certain attributes, patterns of behaviour, appearances and beliefs (Ward et al 2008). This stereotyping according to age is not restricted to older people of course and can apply to all ages and age groups. Here is a useful quote to that illustrates how the issue of age pervades many aspects of the life course:Our lives are defined by ageing: the ages at which we can learn to drive, vote, have sex, buy a house, or retire, get a pension, travel by bus for free. More subtle are the implicit boundaries that curtail our lives: the 'safe' age to have children, the 'experience' needed to fill the boss's role, the physical strength needed for some jobs. Society is continually making judgments about when you are too old for something - and when you are too old"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000439788 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000439788 650_0 $$aAge discrimination. 000439788 650_0 $$aOlder people. 000439788 650_0 $$aAgeism. 000439788 7001_ $$aSargeant, Malcolm. 000439788 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tAge discrimination and diversity.$$dCambridge ; New York : Cambridge University Press, 2011$$z9781107003774$$w(DLC) 2011001814$$w(OCoLC)698451465 000439788 85280 $$bebk$$hEBSCOhost 000439788 85640 $$3EBSCOhost$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=399326$$zOnline Access 000439788 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:439788$$pGLOBAL_SET 000439788 980__ $$aEBOOK 000439788 980__ $$aBIB 000439788 982__ $$aEbook 000439788 983__ $$aOnline 000439788 994__ $$a92$$bISE
