The first step is to understand the problem and develop detection, intervention, and prevention strategies so that we can help elderly victims today. The second, broader step is to examine the underlying societal attitudes and institutional policies that set the stage for the mistreatment of the older population, so that we may be able actively to participate in helping reduce the incidence and prevalence of elder abuse and neglect. For as the number of older people increases in the United States, so many cases of mistreatment. We, as professionals, are extremely fortunate to have this groundbreaking book to help us deal with this critical problem, as well as to lay the foundation for future research and policies.""
