Description: Focuses on the experiences of older lesbian, gay and bisexual (LGB) individuals, in order to analyze how ageing, gender and sexuality intersect to produce particular inequalities relating to resources, recognition and representation in later life. Westwood adopts a feminist socio-legal perspective to propose that these inequalities are informed by and play out in relation to temporal, spatial and regulatory contexts. --From publisher description.
