| dc.description | In a previous book,4 various scholars presented different theoretical approaches to Elder Law. In this book, the contributors attempted to further develop Elder Law knowledge and to point to new and futuristic directions in guardianship law from a substitute decision-making model to a supportive decision-making one, inspired by legislation from other jurisdictions in the world. New solutions for advancing the rights of older adults and addressing abuse and neglect advocate the application and development of principles of civil rights, human rights and citizenship. Discussion of the usefulness of a global approach to the promotion of rights through an international convention on the rights of older persons will also be explored. Overall, the book proposes new directions to the future development of Elder Law. The passion to generously share and learn from each other is evident in the realization of this work and in the collaborations to follow which it and future efforts will inspire. These directions have taken us far beyond the early visions of the practice of Elder Law. I would like to finish by thanking all the authors for their excellent contributions to this book, and to my co-editor, Dr. Israel (Issi) Doron, for partnering with me on this project. I would like also to thank Springer Publication and Dr. Brigitte Reschke, the Executive Editor in the field of law, for their support in publishing this book. | - |
