| Annotation | This book arose out of the Second International Conference on Ageing, Spirituality and Well-being, held at the University of Durham in July 2002, and co-sponsored by the Christian Council on Ageing (CCOA) and the MHA Care Group. The book brings together all the plenary addresses and a selection of papers. It provides guidance on how spiritual needs can be defined and addressed, and how meaningful care and support can be given. Themes covered include: the challenge of creative ageing; successful ageing; living with a stroke; institutionalised religion; the search for meaning of life in older age; people with dementia; and ageing in an acute mental health unit.
