THE WONDER OF AGING A New Approach to Embracing Life After Fifty

Listeners will warm up quickly to the appealing way Nick Podehl narrates this exceptional lesson. With elocution that sounds both relaxed and focused, he delivers a magnetic listening experience. He is especially effective at using strategic pauses to emphasize points and to make long sentences clear. The conversational book, by a social philosopher and counselor, uses the author’s own journey into late life, fascinating research, and poignant anecdotes from his practice to show how we can embrace the challenges of moving into our sixties, seventies, and beyond. The holistic paradigm behind his recommendations is impressively sensible. This is well-written step-by-step guidance for letting go of our middle years, embracing our realities, and discovering what we can do for ourselves and others as we grow older. T.W.
