While Hong Kong people enjoy the world's longest life expectancy, an important question arises: Are we truly achieving healthy ageing?
In this book, Professor Jean Woo addresses a diverse array of challenges associated with the elderly population in Hong Kong society, including issues like elderly poverty, unfriendly community designs, unfair stigmatization faced by seniors, and late-life loneliness. Drawing on extensive research and clinical experience, she advocates for self-care, education, and empowerment, encouraging us to move beyond dependence on doctors and medications.
Ageing is inevitable, yet we can control how we age.
