| book description |

Quality of life is an issue which has drawn the attention of scholars, politicians and the general public since ancient times. Along with the development of social indicator research after the 1960s, life satisfaction became one of the main assessments in measuring one's quality of life. Against the background of ageing in the European scale, the household has become a significant dimension for older people. Due to changes in social culture and personal living arrangements, the role of the household in providing older people with a better later life is reducing rapidly. Therefore, this book takes older Germans as the typical group and analyses their life satisfaction from the perspective of the household-related life domain. With a series of quantitative statistics, some of the findings are outside expectations. This book with its interesting findings is a worthy read for scholars and college students in relevant fields. Besides, this book may also be attractive for older people who are concerned about their own later life.
