The End Is Nigh: An Insider's Guide to Aging - Paperback
About this item
by Connie Leas (Author)
No sugar coating-but plenty of information and inspiration.
Connie Leas, an author in her later years, brings a clear, readable perspective to the realities of "old old" age-age 80 and beyond. She combines personal experience with scientific research to create a lively, informative guide for making the most of life's last years.
Drawing on resources ranging from medical journals to verbatim reports, Leas covers such topics as the biology of aging bodies; ways to enhance safety, health and fitness; varieties of living arrangements; navigating the health care system; and making end-of-life decisions. Because Leas began writing this book at age 88, older readers will find plenty of inspiration and fellow-feeling, and younger ones will develop a new consciousness of their elders' lives as well as a heads up on what's to come.
