The Psychology of Human Ageing by D. B. Bromley is a landmark academic work that chronicles the complex psychological and behavioural changes that accompany the ageing process, from early adulthood through to the final stages of life. Grounded in rigorous empirical research, the book presents a comprehensive examination of cognitive decline, personality development, social adjustment, and the biological underpinnings that shape how humans experience growing old. Bromley, a distinguished British psychologist, approaches the subject with both scientific precision and genuine humanistic concern, making what could be an intimidating subject both accessible and profoundly relevant to a general readership.\n\nPublished as a Pelican Original — Penguin's celebrated imprint dedicated to serious non-fiction for the curious public — the work sits at the intersection of developmental psychology, gerontology, and social science. Bromley argues that ageing is not merely a biological inevitability but a richly layered psychological journey, one shaped by culture, circumstance, and individual history. His meticulous, evidence-based style illustrates the full spectrum of human experience in later life, challenging prevailing assumptions and offering insights that remain as urgent today as when the book first appeared. For anyone seeking to understand the human condition at its most universal, this is an essential and quietly revelatory read.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49216208797915,"sku":"2026200017510-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/5d4d9e67-e7e5-420e-beb5-3f8282311403.png?v=1788405379","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200017510-secondhand-the-psychology-of-human-ageing","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
