Description

In this study of personal and social changes associated with ageing, the nature of loneliness is analysed and clearly distinguished from solitary living, which need not be an unpleasant state. Conclusions based upon material drawn from literature and research, including the author's own, indicate that older people are not, in general, lonelier than when younger.
