First published in 1993. This present volume, co-edited by two sociologists, Jon Hendricks of the United States and Carolyn Rosenthal of Canada, focuses on a comparative, cross-national discussion of social policies of the United States and Canada, especially those related to health care. The uniqueness o f this work lies in the fact that it views family experiences from both a Canadian and an American perspective. In addition, this book not only fills a gap in our know ledge of social policies, but contributes to our understanding of how these policies shape and effect the lives o f older fam ilies in both countries.
