Since 1970 the dramatic rise in crimes affecting the elderly has led to a substantial amount of research. This broadly based guide to recent work in the field encompasses references in gerontology, criminology, criminal justice, sociology, psychology, and allied disciplines. Containing over 360 thoroughly annotated citations, it provides access to current knowledge of both the victimization of the elderly and their participation in crime.

The bibliography is arranged by subject categories. Chapters devoted to crimes against the elderly focus on criminal justice issues, criminal victimization of the elderly, the fear of crime on the part of the elderly, the abuse and neglect of the elderly, crime prevention, and victim assistance. Chapters dealing with the elderly as criminals present resources on criminal patterns among the elderly, causes of criminal behavior, aging prisoners, rehabilitative programs, and policy and criminal justice issues. Citations include books and chapters, journal articles, conference proceedings and papers, research reports, congressional hearings, unpublished studies, crime prevention models, training programs, and listings of agencies and organizations concerned with crime and the elderly. Presenting a careful assessment of each resource, including objectives and major conclusions, this bibliography will be an important tool for human services and criminal justice professionals as well as researchers, teachers, students, and attorneys working in this challenging field.
