Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. GO GENTLE INTO THAT GOOD NIGHT!America's Elder Care Crisis"Caregiving is love turned into labor-measured in sleepless hours and quiet courage, mostly unseen."Every day, millions of Americans wake up as caregivers-some suddenly, some slowly-stepping into one of the most emotionally demanding and economically invisible roles in the nation. In GO GENTLE INTO THAT GOOD NIGHT! Alisha Kumar and physician-scientist Dr. Ravi R. Iyer shine a powerful light on one of America's most urgent but overlooked issues: the hidden caregiving crisis reshaping families, workplaces, and communities.Through vivid storytelling, data-driven insight, and compassion honed from decades in medicine and lived experience, this book reveals the emotional, physical, and financial toll borne by unpaid family caregivers. From the daughter spoon-feeding her mother after a stroke to the son navigating veterans' benefits between double shifts, these stories expose a truth long ignored: America's care system runs on invisible heroes.Drawing on real experiences and national research, the authors trace how a fragmented care infrastructure-marked by policy gaps, inequities, and cultural expectations-leaves families overwhelmed, under-supported, and unseen. Yet this is not just a chronicle of crisis; it is a call for transformation. Each chapter blends narrative and analysis to illuminate the economics behind love's labor and the systemic failures that turn devotion into debt.With lyrical prose and clear-eyed urgency, Kumar and Dr. Iyer argue that caregiving is not merely a private act of love-it is public infrastructure, essential to the nation's health and economic stability. They outline actionable reforms and a hopeful, achievable vision for a future where caregiving is recognized, supported, and dignified.Inside, you'll discover: Raw caregiving stories across stroke, dementia, disability, and aging.The economics of invisible labor-over $600-$873 billion contributed annually, with families still pushed into financial crisis.The profound mental and physical toll of caregiving: burnout, anxiety, depression, sleep loss, and stalled careers.How gender, income, and geography shape who carries the burden-and who receives help.A policy blueprint for a modern care system with time, money, training, respite, and dignity.Hopeful solutions for building a true care infrastructure that strengthens families instead of breaking them.Who This Book Is ForFamily caregivers, healthcare professionals, policymakers, aging services advocates, employers and HR leaders, and anyone who loves someone aging, ill, or disabled. In truth-every American citizen, because one day you will need care or give it.Why Readers Love ItEqual parts heartbreaking, data-rich, and transformational, this book blends story and analysis to reveal a crisis hiding in plain sight-and the movement rising to fix it. It honors the millions who keep loved ones alive, safe, and dignified, while demanding a country that honors them too. If you have ever cared for someone-or fear the moment you will-this book will change how you see America and what you believe is possible.About the AuthorsAlisha Kumar is a student and emerging healthcare advocate whose early caregiving experiences inspired this project.
