The contributors are religious and spiritual leaders and ethical thinkers from a range of different backgrounds. They define 'spirituality' not just as a religious concept but as the fulfilment of the universal human need for purpose, values and relationships - a sense of wholeness in life. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis spiritual dimension helps people face the emotional and psychological challenges of growing older, such as memory loss, dementia, bereavement and fear of death.

Through their spirituality, older people can attain a fuller appreciation and understanding of life, which can also inform and enrich the lives of others.Spirituality and Ageing will be an invaluable resource to carers looking for a holistic and more reflective approach to work with older people.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlbert Jewell is pastoral director of Methodist Homes for the Aged.
