My history of old age in Australia since 1860 will provide the first book which maps our experiences of growing old in the past, as a foundation for improved social and economic policy. The national government's 'Inter-generational report' has started a process of review and planning at a time of dramatic demographic change. However, developing strategies for 'ageing well, ageing productively' depends on an informed understanding of previous and current expectations about and attitudes to ageing in Australia. The history of old age is a complex rather than simple story, and successful policy development will require a solid historical foundation.

我自1860年以来在澳大利亚的老年史将提供第一本描绘我们过去变老经历的书，作为改进社会和经济政策的基础。 国家政府的“代际报告”在人口结构发生巨大变化之际启动了审查和规划进程。然而，制定“健康老龄化，富有成效老龄化”战略取决于对澳大利亚过去和现在对老龄化的期望和态度的知情理解。老年人的历史是一个复杂而非简单的故事，成功的政策制定需要坚实的历史基础。
