Women Confronting Retirement: A Nontraditional Guide

Rating:
Summary: New ways to look at retirement....
Review: I enjoyed it tremendously. It gives me the sense that one's
older years are likely to be very fluid, not fixed at all, with doors opening and closing. There were certainly familiar themes, but new ones, too. This is a very thought-provoking book that would make a wonderful gift for an older woman friend or relative.

Summary: Exciting Transitions
Review: I found this book very interesting. Since these women have led active professional lives, often politically active as well, their stories are really compelling. They face the issue of retirement, and its problems, with so much honesty that I was genuinely riveted by their experience. Some of them have decided to go on leading rich and exciting lives in retirement, while others have chosen to enjoy their freedom by luxuriating in relaxation. Almost all of them give absorbing accounts of their experience, and those few who don't, you can skip.
