401PC Biological And Ethical Issues In Aging (3)

This course is designed to provide both a disciplinary and in interdisciplinary study of the biological, philosophical, and ethical foundations and principles underlying the phenomenon of aging on an individual and societal level. Various physiological, neurological, anatomical, and psychological processes and changes characteristic of the development occurring during the aging process will be studied, and discussed. The philosophical and specifically ethical issues associated traditionally with aging will be re-examined and analyzed in terms of scientific, technological, cultural, sociological, economic, and legal changes in knowledge and attitudes.
