Editorial: Canadian Research on Aging: Two Decades of Growth; Time of Change
نویسنده
چکیده
With the publication of this issue, the Canadian Journal on Aging reaches a significant milestone: the completion of 20 years of publishing a broad array of research in the field of aging in Canada, covering the full spectrum of gerontological enquiry, from the biological aspects of aging, to educational gerontology, health sciences, psychology, social sciences, and social policy and practice in relation to aging and elderly persons. It also signifies a personal milestone for me as well, for with this issue I complete my four-year term as Editor-in-Chief of the CJA. The Editorship now transfers to Carolyn Rosenthal of McMaster University. As was the case when the Journal celebrated its first decade (Beland, 1991), such anniversaries and moments of transition typically occasion reflection on the continuities and changes in the Journal over time; the broader status of research on aging in Canada in terms of challenges and opportunities; and speculation as to the future of the field.
