A prominent US gerontologist’s practical, science-based guide to aging well
Growing old in today’s society is daunting. The core message of this book is that losing your quality of life as you age is not inevitable. You can live a great life all the way to the end by leveraging what “older you” does better. By the end of this book, your fear of aging will be replaced with confidence that you will know how to age into the best version of yourself.
A Short Guide to Your Long Life is the practical guide readers have been looking for. A rich body of evidence confirms that a number of strengths peaks with age: judgment, empathy, patience, and appreciation. Older you will have better problem-solving skills, more resilience, and a deeper and more robust spiritual life. When you harness these strengths, growing older becomes an era of expansion rather than contraction. In a society that can you make you feel invisible, staying vital requires you to stay visible to yourself so that you uncover the strengths and fullness of your life.
