Ageing: Perspectival Explorations towards Theo-gerontology

The book is a multi-dimensional explorations on the issue facing vulnerable Ageing population in the growing individualistic and materialistic world. The volume is yet another bold theological step of Gurukul in her effort to make a fresh adventure in addressing one of the serious social issues of public importance. The articles in the volume try to challenge the socio-economically constructed negative images of the Aged people and bring to light their beauty and their agency by constructing a theo-gerontology which would provide viable practical response to the issue of Ageing. The uniqueness of the volume lies in its ‘approach’. Explorations are not made from a mere sympathetic solidarity perspective, i.e. what is to be done for, but from an active participatory perspective, i.e. what they can contribute. There is power in them for building community of peace and harmony!
