Produktbeschreibung
In this major new study, James F.

With a focus on the interwar period, his study uncovers the role of the commercial world in influencing attitudes towards ageing and youth.

Ultimately, Stark offers an innovative historical account, which draws together bodies, gender, science, medicine, advertising, and ageing, and shows how the quest for youth was transformed by social anxieties about an ageing population and economic crisis.
