You’re likely to live longer than you think. Today’s 50-year-olds could have an astounding 36 or more years of life. What’s your dream life for your later years? When We’re 64 is a friendly, practical guide to preparing for what could be the best years of your life - from the essentials on work and how to fund retirement to volunteering, where to live and what kind of housing you’ll need. It covers how to stay healthy - and still live a full life if you get a health condition - and reveals how your attitude to ageing could actually increase your lifespan.

As tens of millions of Americans are living longer lives, longevity is creating challenges that cut across race, class, and gender. Caregivers help older relatives for “free,” but with high costs to themselves. The institutions built to protect older people—like nursing homes and guardianship—too often harm them instead. And epidemics of isolation and loneliness make older people vulnerable to all sorts of harm. In The Measure of Our Age, elder justice expert and MacArthur “genius” grant recipient M.T. Connolly investigates the systems we count on to protect us as we age.

Some of the most profound growth of our lives can happen in the home stretch, the years after age 60 or so. It's a time when we can finally crystallize the meaning of what we've been and done so far and fully expand into the self we've always intended to be, guided by the voice of the soul. But, says psychologist Charles Garfield, that can only happen if we first loosen the grip of the life we've led so far, the one that's been focused outwardly - on activity, achievement, and the idea of success - and let our souls lead the way.

In all the ways you imagined your life, this is never how you thought it would turn out. If you didn’t anticipate still being single at this stage and you aren’t quite sure how to navigate the unfulfilled dreams and as yet unanswered prayers, you are not alone. Kate Hurley found herself waiting on the side of that road, and waiting, and waiting. Now she wants to guide you through it. She doesn’t offer a magic formula that will bring your spouse to you, nor does she ask you to be content with your “gift” of singleness.

Even the most disorganized among us can take control of our on- and off-line details so our loved ones won’t have to scramble later. The experts at Everplans make it possible in this essential and easy-to-follow book. Breaking the task down into three levels, from the most urgent (like granting access to passwords), to the technical (creating a manual for the systems in your home), to the nostalgic (assembling a living memory), this clear, step-by-step program not only removes the anxiety and stress from getting your life in order, it’s actually liberating. And deeply satisfying.

There is much about aging that we can't control. But there is much more that we can. Coventry Edwards-Pitt applies the success story format of her highly acclaimed first book to one of today's most pressing issues: how to age well—given our increased longevity—and ensure that our later years have a positive rather than negative impact on our families. Drawing on her many years of professional experience, Covie interviews vibrant elders and brings to life the choices they are making that allow them to live content, engaged, and purposeful later lives and design legacies of meaning.
