It investigates the intersections of tourism and aging from a variety of perspectives that focus on the many ways in which senior tourism is socially constructed and/or individually experienced. The essays tackle key topics ranging from the socio-economic aspects of post-retirement travel to the representations of the traveling elderly in literature, film and media, and the influence of travel on late-life creativity UR - https://doi.org/10.14361/9783839437032 UR - http://www.degruyter.com/doc/cover/9783839437032.jpg ER -
