Honest Aging: An Insider's Guide to the Second Half of Life
January 28, 2024
Dr. Rosanne Leipzig has published a book that belongs on your bookshelf if you are old or hope to be old in the future. A geriatrician for forty years and vice chair for education in the Department of Geriatrics at Mount Sinai Medical School in New York City, Dr. Leipzig tells us what to expect in later life (although not exactly “when”) and how to process growing older.
Chapters explain what’s normal and what’s not. In 400 pages, Leipzig covers subjects from aches and pains to sex to how to know when to stop driving and so much more. Her book is jam-packed with useful information presented the way you would like your doctor to talk to you.
I couldn’t put it down.
