202-842-1275, ext. 142 The Art of Aging: New Journal Unites Humanities and Gerontology With the release of its inaugural double issue this June, the Journal of Aging, Humanities, and the Arts (JAHA) seeks to create a dialogue between the humanities, medical science, and the social sciences around issues of aging, according to journal editors Anne Wyatt-Brown and Dana Burr Bradley. Printed four times a year by Routledge, JAHA is the official publication of the Humanities and Arts Committee of The Gerontological Society of America (GSA). "Our vision is that this journal will create a forum for scholars and act as an incubator of fresh approaches and constructive dialog about the meanings, experiences and challenges of growing old," says Bradley, who is a professor of gerontology at Western Kentucky University. "JAHA will support a large interdisciplinary cadre of researchers who work in the field of aging, but who perhaps would not all identify themselves as gerontologists." Press Release Continued
