Civil Liberties and the Frail Elderly
Cohen, Elias S.
Society, 15, 5, 34-42, Jul-Aug 78
America's elderly are affected in very special ways by the law: some as a result of special legislation or court decisions, some deriving from the objective life-situation of certain old people, and some from the special prejudices that are visited upon the elderly. (Author)
