Contributors from diverse research fields—social gerontology, nursing, ethics, communication studies, and social work—analyze how social, cultural, and institutional factors influence the experience of dignity in later life. The monograph addresses the importance of quality care, the impact of linguistic expressions (e.g., diminutives) in communication with older individuals, intergenerational cooperation, and ethical dilemmas in elderly care.

Reviewers Assoc. Prof. Dr. Danijela Lahe and Assoc. Prof. Dr. Jadranka Stričević highlight this monograph's scientific and societal relevance, particularly in light of demographic changes and the need for a comprehensive approach to the dignity of older adults.

This book is an essential resource for researchers, students, healthcare and social service providers, and policymakers. Due to its interdisciplinary nature, it will also interest the broader professional and general public concerned with aging with dignity.
