A sampling of over 500 journal articles, books, and book chapters offers graduate students and beginning researchers both access to useful information sources and an overview of the direction of research in the past 10-15 years. Emphasizes research summaries and literature reviews rather than reports on narrow topics; also includes some older classic works. The annotations of one or two sentences are descriptive and critical. Among the sections are theory in the psychology of aging, learning and memory, therapy and intervention, and death and dying.
