Gerontology as an Interdisciplinary Science

這本書從老年學的角度介紹了診斷和管理個體和社會老化的最新循證方法。在人口結構發生重大變化，如老齡化和長壽的情況下，一個關鍵問題是如何過上長壽健康的生活，以及社區和公司如何支持這一目標。因此，本書旨在教育社會關於這一重要問題，並促進將人文科學與自然科學相結合的研究，使老年人成為經濟市場的一部分，並將他們視為新的社會資產。本書分為三個主題部分：環境健康、老年學中的文化/社會和預防醫學。每個主題的章節提供易於理解的演算法和關鍵要點。通過對預防醫學和環境醫學的研究，這些跨學科的系統將適用於開創新的學術領域和創新。

《老年學領域的環境健康和預防醫學創新》是全球環境和職業健康學者必備的信息來源。對於尋求關於老年人護理、福利和健康促進的全面信息的新舊研究人員和學生來說，它也是一個寶貴的資源。各個領域的研究人員，如利用老年人的生物信號進行機器人操作界面和情感分析的研究人員，將會重視這本書。它豐富了創作者和技術人員對老年人生物信號的數據科學/基於數據的科學的理解。
