Because of the demand for competent psychological services growing within the United States as\u003cbr\u003ea function of the aging of the population, the Commission for the Recognition of Specialties and Proficiencies in Professional Psychology recently has designated professional geropsychology as a specialty. Based in large part on the Pikes Peaks model for training in professional geropsychology, this\u003cbr\u003ebook includes multiple chapter authors under the expert editorship of Victor Molinari. As described in chapter 1, the ultimate goal of geropsychology is to apply scientific findings about psychological aging to improve the lives of older adults. Psychologists interested in working with older\u003cbr\u003eadults will find this volume both educational and aspirational. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Victor Molinari\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/15\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 226\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.79lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780195385670\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVictor Molinari is a Professor in the Department of Aging and Mental Health at the University of South Florida's Louis de la Parte Florida Mental Health Institute\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press, USA","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40110188167283,"sku":"9.7802E+12","price":64.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_20530087-7d4d-4f1a-bfb4-7dd56402a742.jpg?v=1653401942","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/specialty-competencies-in-geropsychology-9780195385670","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
