  • INDEPENDENCE AND THE ELDERLY
    MALCOLM J. FISK
    In the 1980s much research into the needs of the elderly was undertaken from the perspective of a ‘sickness’ model, a model which reinforced labels of elderly people as frail, disabled, dependent and economically unproductive. Few studies adopted a positive attitude to ageing and elderly people. Originally published in 1986, reissued here with a new preface, this book helped to...

    MILTON FISK

Ethics and Social Survival rejects theories that treat ethics as having justification within itself and contends that ethics can have a grip on humans only if it serves their deep-seated need to live together. It takes a social-survival view of ethical life and it...

  • ENERGIZING SUSTAINABLE CITIES
    GRUBLER, ARNULF / FISK, DAVID
    Urban systems now house about half of the world's population, but determine some three quarters of the global economy and its associated energy use and resulting environmental impacts. The twenty-first century will be increasingly urban. Sustainable development therefore needs first to be defined and analyzed, and then realized in urban settings. Energy is one of the key challe...

  • A BOOK OF FAITH SEEKING UNDERSTANDING
