Elderhood: Redefining Aging, Transforming Medicine, Reimagining Life by Louise Aronson

5.0

Thought-provoking look at aging as a distinct and vital phase of life. How our culture, including the medical profession, tends to only use a medical/illness model and overlook the whole person. I like the idea of "young old" and "old old." Also an indictment of our health care system, including her own experience with burn-out. Would probably be good to read as I transition out of "young old" someday...
