Health and Cognition in Old Age
In recent years, the aim of research on aging has shifted from prolonging life to fostering healthy and cognitively robust old age. In order to improve the quality of life of older people, we need to better understand cognitive aging as well as bodily aging. Health and Cognition in Old Age assembles the cream of research across varied medical, mental health, and social disciplines, and demonstrates how this knowledge can lead to improved outcomes for older people. The first half of this expert volume discusses biomedical and life course factors in aging, particularly as they affect cognition and well-being in later life. From there, effective solutions are the focus: interventions and care p...

Der biologische Unternehmer
Wir schreiben über einen altbekannten Zusammenhang, jedoch in einer neuen Sichtweise. Der biologische Unternehmer ist unsere Konstruktion. Wir beschreiben das Alltägliche. Der biologische ist der Unternehmer seines Körpers. Er ist Eigentümer seines Körpers. Er gestaltet, irritiert, manipuliert, steuert seinen Körper, fügt ihm Schaden zu, macht ihm Ärger, erfreut ihn. Alles ist in seiner Hand. Er ist Investor in seine Gesundheit. Er kann seinen Körper (noch) nicht neukombinieren. Er ist persönlich verantwortlich für ihn. Er hat sogar sein Altern, den Abbau seiner Funktionstüchtigkeit, unter Kontrolle, in Grenzen. Diese Grenzen gilt es zu erkunden und unternehmerisch zu gestalten.
