Ageing and Society<br><br>"Mental Health in Later Life is a comprehensive body of work that challenges previous conceptualisations of "older age" by introducing the term "later life" and successfully dismisses the homogenisation of people based on age... all people working in policy, practice, research and academia will gain many insights and benefits from the wide angled lens of Professor Milne's book." International Journal of Ageing and Later Life<br><br>"A well-written and well-researched book that leads to conceptualizing mental health and wellness in later life through a different lens. This thoughtful book is easily accessible... it is suitable for a wider audience including students, clinicians, and policy makers." Canadian Journal on Aging<br>
