This book presents the major issues that challenge people in later life that could lead them to either spiritual integrity or despair. Beyond the physical and psychosocial, this book shows how the journey into aging can - through humor - become self-transcendent and deeply spiritual in the face of physical decline. This theological perspective illustrates the full breadth of issues facing those in later life. It presents effective pastoral frameworks of care for those who struggle with the depression, dementia, disabilities, losses, and terminal illness that may accompany aging.MacKinlay, Elizabeth is the author of 'Spirituality of Later Life On Humor and Despair', published 2005 under ISBN 9780789027320 and ISBN 0789027321.
