Book Description

March 15, 2009
A new generation is evolving together through the passage of eldership. In Audacious Aging, we collect their voices, full of wisdom, fierceness, compassion and gentleness. They are the graceful and eloquent transformative agents our communities and our planet are now seeking. This book brings together voices from medicine, psychology, business, government, the media, and entertainment, to articulate a brilliant new vision of the possibilities of the second half of life. Some are in their nineties, others are in their twenties, yet they share a common vision of aging. Not content with "going gently into that good night," they all see midlife and beyond as a gateway to changing the planet, and accelerating their personal transformation. They expect to live long, healthy, active and influential lives. They are profoundly engaged at the crossroads of crises and opportunities on Earth, and in this inspiring book, they paint a brilliant new picture of the opportunities that come with aging audaciously.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for mother's or father's day!, May 6, 2009
By 
This review is from: Audacious Aging: Eldership As a Revolutionary Endeavor (Hardcover)
I recently ordered this book for my father, who seems to be in a bit of a rut as he thinks about whether to retire or try something new. He is 65 and is of the minset that he should just retire and play golf for the rest of his life. Well, as this book reveals, many people in the older, boomer, generation are rediscovering the second half of life and are really using this period to pursue things they've always wanted to do. If your parents need inspiration to find their creative outlets in this period of their lives, this is the book for them!

A PERFECT gift for mother's day or father's day. The essays are all succinct and well written. A great read that can give an aging boomer some great ideas on what to do next.
