Aging in Comparative PerspectiveAging in Nepal

Aging in Comparative Perspective: Aging in Nepal [Much of this book is concerned with countries which have had aging as a feature of their demographic profile for some years. Nepal, however, is one of the exceptions to this, not least because it is one of the poorest countries in the world; hence, aging has been the exception rather than the rule, until very recently. This chapter will draw heavily upon the work of Parker and Pant (2011), 2009) and is co-authored by Dr Sara Parker who has been working and researching in Nepal since the early 1990s.] http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png

Abstract

[Much of this book is concerned with countries which have had aging as a feature of their demographic profile for some years. Nepal, however, is one of the exceptions to this, not least because it is one of the poorest countries in the world; hence, aging has been the exception rather than the rule, until very recently. This chapter will draw heavily upon the work of Parker and Pant (2011), 2009) and is co-authored by Dr Sara Parker who has been working and researching in Nepal since the early 1990s.]
