Abstract

Marcin Muszynski’s habilitation monograph Uczenie się stawania się osobą starą [Learning to Become an Old Person], is an important monograph in the area of sciences dealing with the human aging process. The most crucial part, because it crowns the research process and indicates the author’s contribution to the development of theory, is the author’s conception of the learning model of becoming an old person, in which the key role is played by the proficiency of the aging person. Special recognition is due to the extensive methodological section of the monograph, which includes a natural history of the study and rich references to current international and Polish literature.
