Abstract | This comprehensive look at retirement as a transitional life stage was instituted by the Federal Government in order to initiate theory building in this much neglected area. Conferences participated in by experts were held at intervals so as to maximize interactive thinking. Following this give and take, participants formulated theoretical models based on available research findings which were in turn criticized by other experts and re-worked by the authors. The models which emerged are contained in this volume and constitute the most complete analysis of the retirement process currently available. The chapters were written in non-technical style by eminent investigators from anthropology, economics, medicine, psychiatry, psychology and sociology. Titles of the 12 chapters are:"Retirement as a Transitional Life Stage,""An Analytic Model for the Sociological Study of Retirement,""Developmental Conceptions and the Retirement Process,""An Anthropological View of Retirement,""A Life-Cycle Perspective: Public Policies for Later Life,""Retirement Strategy in an Evolving Society,""Lay Observations on Retirement,""Adjustment to Retirement: Substitution or Accommodation?""Adaptation to Loss of Work,""Ego Psychological and Developmental Approaches to the 'Retirement Crises' in Men,""Some Potentialities of a Life-Cycle Approach to the Study of Retirement," and "Beyond Retirement."
