Being a Wise Elder: Living Mindfully and Finding Rewards in the Oldest Years - Paperback

by Stephanie Goldenthal (Author)

In this book Dr. Goldenthal presents the oldest years as a stage of life with special

challenges and opportunities. This time of life is the culmination of many previous life

stages when we have been confronted with important issues and choices. As an elderly

person herself, Dr. Goldenthal discusses the concerns people are likely to have in the

oldest years. She focuses on dealing as wisely as we can with these concerns and to

accept what we cannot change. When we have done this to the best of our ability, we are

then free to consider what gives us pleasure and what we value most in our lives.
