摘要：“Life increases age and the increase of age ends life”—This is the subtitle on front cover of the first issue of the world’s first Elderly Journal published in 1946. The “increase of age” that “ends life” has kept accelerating in the past 40 years. More gray-haired people are seen among street crowds，confronting mankind with a “silvery tide”—the aging of population—in addition to the rapid growth of population. Developed countries have been in the lead in becoming aging societies. Ever since the 1970s，when its fertilitv rate was dropping considerably，China’s age structure has been changing quietly from a young type into an adult type and towards an elderly type. Given the current age structure in the country，the aging process of China’s population is expected to proceed rapidly，exerting tremendous impact on the country’s economy and social development as well as the population itself. The major problem is how to deal with an elderly population that will be more than four times larger than the current one，and how to meet its basic needs.
