Focusing on talk, anecdotes and stories of fiftysomethings, Age in Action provides comprehensive analyses of membership and categorisation work in interaction. It outlines theoretical and methodological starting points for the discursive analysis of age, and for the study of everyday categorisation more generally. The volume is of immediate interest to students and professionals interested in discursive analysis, in everyday categorisation practices, in morality, and in ageing and the lifespan.
