In a culture that values youth over age and experience, many older adults try to hide their chronological age, but few are looking at how we can prepare for the inevitable changes ahead.   

Dr. Katherine Esty, a social psychologist and therapist, interviewed ordinary eighty-somethings regarding their worries and attitudes to see how they make sense of their lives as they age. The result is her book, Eightysomethings: A practical guide to letting go, aging well, and finding unexpected happiness.
