Decemnovenarianism

""Decemnovenarianism"" is a philosophical and social critique written by Frances Power Cobbe. The book explores the concept of ageism and the discrimination against people based on their age, particularly those who are nearing the age of 90. Cobbe argues that society often fails to recognize the value and contributions of older individuals, and instead, marginalizes them and treats them as burdens. She also examines the impact of ageism on women, who are often subject to both ageism and sexism. Throughout the book, Cobbe advocates for a more inclusive and respectful society that values people of all ages and recognizes their unique contributions. ""Decemnovenarianism"" is a thought-provoking and insightful read that challenges readers to reconsider their attitudes towards aging and the elderly.THIS 44 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Studies New and Old of Ethical and Social Subjects, by Frances Power Cobbe.
