abstract="Americans are living longer, and technological processes are moving into many facets of their lives. Topics addressed include health, diagnoses and treatment, the use of X-ray, caregiving, electronic mail, voice recognition, fax modems, pen tablets and notebook computers, compressed technology, leisure and entertainment, and employment. Many older Americans are capable of learning and utilizing the new technological processes listed above. The use of computerized tools can help senior adults increase their interaction with others, acquire new information and knowledge, engage in creative pursuits, and strengthen problem-solving abilities.<p />",
