    Abstract: This book examines the concept of power. It begins by pointing to its multi-dimensional definition and points to different sociological interpretations of its conception and social practice. The book explores power in two contexts: firstly, micro. It explores professional relations with older people to illuminate how power changes, shifts in emphasis and stabilizes in everyday encounters.

    Abstract: This book attempts to unravel the fundamental assumptions of social philosophy and how its different concepts and theories make sense of human aging. The book explores how biomedical aging dominated thoughts on aging until social understandings from different disciplines came about that highlighted that aging could be understood in terms of social class, gender and ethnicity. A key debate in recent years has been the critical approach versus positive approach. The final two chapters of the book explore Foucauldian philosophy applied to instances of the aging process; whilst the final chapter a
