Age Power

In this break-through book, Dr. Ken Dychtwald, the leading authority on the aging of America, uses more than twenty-five years of study to explore how extraordinary demographic and economic shifts are causing the emergence of Age Power-a powerful new maturity. The largest generation in history, the baby boomers, will now routinely live well beyond their eighties and nineties as the "new old," influencing all of our daily lives. Dychtwald explains how unprepared we are for the challenges of a new era in which the priorities will be set based on the needs and desires of the elderly. He surveys how we each must make individual decisions right now to "age proof" our families and ourselves.
