Future Changes And Challenges Within The Elderly Population
...War Introduction
The elderly population, like every other population in the world today, can benefit from changes that have occurred in the world thanks to technological revolutions. The Internet, for instance, has allowed a virtual world to emerge that rivals the real world in terms of social opportunities.

Likewise, because of the nature of the globalized world it is more likely that this population will be more diverse than it has been in the past, which means there will be……
