Received from Dr. Israel Doron, Haifa University:

It is with great pleasure that I am letting you know that a new book, which I and Prof. Kate Mewhinney have edited, has just been published.

The book (published by a collaboration of:  IFA – International Federation on Aging;  AGE Concern UK;  ILC India;  and JDC-ESHEL in Israel) provides a unique collection of all the main, important international documents relating, at the international level, to the status of the aged and the phenomenon of ageing.  For the first time, readers, the aged and professionals all over the world can obtain a comprehensive picture of the worldwide activities in the field of international law and ageing.

I believe this book could be very helpful for anyone in the field of elder law get an international-comparative perspective on the international documents relating to older persons.
