From the Back Cover
In this interdisciplinary book, experts from philosophy, medicine, law, psychology, economics, and social sciences address questions and develop solutions for a well-designed society of long life. Young as well as old people have to actively shape more and more of their life span. At the same time, aging becomes more multifaceted: the individual view on one's own life course is changing, and the needs and demands for a fulfilled life are diversifying. The implications affect all spheres of life - from education and workplace to health care and the culture of interaction. They require content-related and structural adjustments for a diverse society of longevity in which multiple generations live alongside each other. But how can change be managed responsibly, how can individual and collective responsibility be distributed appropriately, and how can a sustainable and fair social future be ensured?

Björn Schmitz-Luhn studied legal science in Cologne and Phoenix, USA. In his research, he focuses on interdisciplinary and international questions of medical law, social justice in health care, liability and responsibility in medical care and communication, patients' and physicians' rights, as well as new technologies in medicine. He is the General Manager and scientific coordinator of ceres, the interdisciplinary research center on health-related matters of the University of Cologne.

Christiane Woopen studied human medicine and philosophy in Cologne, Bonn, and Hagen. She is the Executive Director of ceres, Professor of Ethics and Theory of Medicine, as well as Head of the Research Unit Ethics at the University of Cologne.
