Description



This book explores the issue of crime and its relationship to gender and ageing. This is a forgotten area of analysis in disciplines of criminology, gerontology and even in Feminist theorising. This book begins by exploring the relationships between crime, ageing and victimisation. The book then moves to assess the main issues associated with understanding imprisonment for older people. The book focuses its attention on gender and its relationship to mental health and institutional psychiatric care. The final part of the book explores the issue of theorising ageing and relationship to crime.
