«Papy boom» is the essay by Maximilienne Levet-Gautrat and Chantal Pelletier, published in paperback by Grasset in 1988 (285 pages, in French).
The essay analyzes aging in France: ten million people over sixty and a declining birth rate. The authors, contrary to prevailing opinion, see that longevity as an opportunity if prejudices against old age are abandoned; thus, the new grandparents could be integrated into the family and into political, social, and economic life.
The work falls within the social sciences and gerontology; it includes a bibliography (pages 275-277).
For readers interested in an optimistic and sociological perspective on longevity and the place of older people in France.
