This book presents the stories of 10 single women who are in their old age and have never been married, and explores the psychological conditions of these women. Specifically, it discusses issues pertaining to their self-concepts, mental states, and coping strategies. It also examines the women's recollections of childhood memories, family history, experiences with death, and their thoughts on the meaning of life. Pandora's Box: Looking into the Conditions of Ageing Single Women in Mindanao sheds light on the physiological and psychological changes that the women experienced in their late adulthood. This book is also designed to provide an intervention program for ageing single women.
