This review is from: Women and Aging: Celebrating Ourselves (Haworth Women's Studies) (Paperback)
Break through the negative stereotype of old age and find personal fulfillment during your mature years. Ruth Thone's guide, full of warmth and support, enables you take and remain in control of your life instead of passively letting others making life changing- and posibly harmful - decisins for you. This book helps you increase the vitality of your older years as you learn how to plan for the future, keep and develop strong relationships, increase your overall wellness and take risks. This book is a celebration of aging with the author's illuminating descriptions of her own aging and how she herself has overcome society's restrictions. Sure to be a source of inspiration for all women- no matter what their ages - who want to take active control of their lives. (from backcover).
