In der Gerontologie wird die Notwendigkeit hochwertiger Interventionen samt Prävention mit dem Erreichen des Renteneintritts der Babyboomer-Generation, dem stetigen Anstieg der Lebenserwartung und dem künftigen Fachkräftemangel drängender denn je. Vor diesem Hintergrund zeigt die neue "Interventionsgerontologie" wie ihre Vorgänger in den Jahren 2000 und 2012 prägnant das breite Spektrum an verhaltensbezogenen Interventionen in 100 Beiträgen. Neu an der "Interventionsgerontologie" ist eine ...
