The various contributions in this reader deal with the social effects of
women's biographies and the situation of women in old age. The following themes are
addressed: Female biographies; leave of absence for the up-bringing of children and the
promotion of women at work; pension as wages for a life's work; the transition to
retirement, the point in time and its impact; the situation of old and older women in both
the western and eastern German states.
