Looks at how people can approach, prepare and deal with mid-life and ageing, and the ways in which ageing and old age can be constructive and rewarding. Drawing on medical psychotheapeutic and sociological sources as well as on literature, the press and biography, this book presents an informative and entertaining account of the human experience of ageing and how it has been viewed by society and the media in times past. The book also conducts a sample survey and picks out many for personal interview, including well-known figures like Helen Mirren, John Cleese, John Updike, Julie Christie, who have found positive ways of making the transition. The author looks at many different areas, like sexuality, lifestyles, friendships, medical science and describe ways people have taken ageing by the scruff of the neck and made it work for them.
