This study suggests that certain regional actions, such as concerted efforts by East Asian governments to liberalize trade and investment, can bring great benefits to the region and the rest of the world. It concentrates on the evolution of trade, its contribution to growth, and the positive impact of foreign direct investment (FDI) on growth and export expansion in the region. But the report also states that the present global consensus on the benefits of liberalized trade provides an unprecedented opportunity for action. Four broad conclusions are reached on the direction of trade and investment liberalization in the region: 1) The region is too important a player in international trade to remain on the sidelines while the industrial countries make major policy decisions. 2) Existing trade imbalances between East Asia and the industrialized countries may be unsustainable. 3) The short-term balance of payments deficits arising from tariff cuts could be more than made up by long-term foreign direct investment flows. 4) A broad-based reduction in protection levels that applies to imports from all countries, whether in East Asia or not, would benefit the region and the rest of the world. Attention is also drawn to the merits of liberalization on a most-favored-nation (MFN) basis instead of through preferential arrangements.

This policy-oriented book identifies the issues countries should consider as they reevaluate their old income security policies and formulate new methods. The choice between the various models for providing old-age security has broad implications for the operation of labor and capital markets, the fiscal system, and the level, growth, and distribution of GNP. The author concludes that a mixed strategy is more effective than any single method of income security. This will be an important book for international economists and policymakers.

Written by a psychologist and a physician who have extensive experience in treating the elderly and first-hand knowledge of what it is like to care for an elderly parent, Eldercare offers practical, down-to-earth information on how to care for older persons. Emphasis is given to questions about the aging process, maintaining maximum independence, the pluses and minuses of home care, preparing a safe environment, how to choose a nursing home, nutrition and exercise, dealing with behavioral problems and basic medical concerns. Eldercare is concerned with every aspect of the aging process, including the importance of family support and role reversal when the adult child takes on the responsibility of making the choices for an aging parent. Blending professional expertise and personal experience, the authors discuss not only the challenges confronting the aged and those who care for them, but also the opportunities for family growth and personal fulfillment.

Abstract: Material representing the first comprehensive, current accounting of the changing needs of the elderly relative to health care is provided for policy makers, the general public, and health care professionals. New survey data are presented identifying the aged, how they live, and their financial resources. Widely accepted myths about the aging are explored. This wide-ranging study provides new understanding of the strengths and limitations of family help and a definitive analysis of the major health and income programs serving the elderly. It is pointed out that the variety of benefits is neither efficient nor fair, subsidizing the larger population of healthy and well-off at the expense of the very old, the poor, and the chronically infirm. It is concluded that current policies need revision to more consistently match benefit programs with needs. (wz).

Grow old on purpose. This book invites readers to navigate a purposeful path from adulthood to elderhood with choice, curiosity, and courage. Everyone is getting old; not everyone is growing old. But the path of purposeful aging is accessible to all—and it's fundamental to health, happiness, and longevity. With a focus on growing whole through developing a sense of purpose in later life, Who Do You Want to Be When You Grow Old? celebrates the experience of aging with inspiring stories, real-world practices, and provocative questions. Framed by a long conversation between two old friends, the book reconceives aging as a liberating experience that enables us to become more authentically the person we always meant to be with each passing year. In their bestseller Repacking Your Bags, Richard J. Leider and David A. Shapiro defined the good life as “living in the place you belong, with people you love, doing the right work, on purpose.” This book builds on that definition to offer a purposeful path for living well while aging well.

Philosophical wisdom and practical advice for overcoming the problems of middle age How can you reconcile yourself with the lives you will never lead, with possibilities foreclosed, and with nostalgia for lost youth? How can you accept the failings of the past, the sense of futility in the tasks that consume the present, and the prospect of death that blights the future? In this self-help book with a difference, Kieran Setiya confronts the inevitable challenges of adulthood and middle age, showing how philosophy can help you thrive. You will learn why missing out might be a good thing, how options are overrated, and when you should be glad you made a mistake. You will be introduced to philosophical consolations for mortality. And you will learn what it would mean to live in the present, how it could solve your midlife crisis, and why meditation helps. Ranging from Aristotle, Schopenhauer, and John Stuart Mill to Virginia Woolf and Simone de Beauvoir, as well as drawing on Setiya’s own experience, Midlife combines imaginative ideas, surprising insights, and practical advice. Writing with wisdom and wit, Setiya makes a wry but passionate case for philosophy as a guide to life.
