Dear Colleagues,

*** Sorry for cross-posting. Please feel free to distribute further ***

I would like to distribute information about a new book that may be
interesting for you: "Economic Foundations for Creative Ageing Policy,
Volume II: Putting Theory into Practice".

This book shows that global population ageing is an opportunity to improve
the quality of human life rather than a threat to economic competitiveness
and stability. It describes the concept of the creative ageing policy as a
mix of the silver economy, the creative economy, and the social and
solidarity economy for older people.

The second volume of "Economic Foundations for Creative Ageing Policy"
focuses on the public policy and management concepts related to the use of
the opportunities that are created by population ageing. Klimczuk covers
theoretical analyses and case study descriptions of good practices to
suggest strategies that could be internationally popularized.

Each chapter includes exercises and assignments for both students and those
who are likely to apply the presented concepts in practice.
