Die gewonnenen Jahre

More about the book

The ancient dream of immortality remains an illusion. This volume develops a holistic approach as an alternative based on a critical view of the prevalent anti-aging concept. The idea is to find a way to age that does not deny the negative aspects of aging, but also does not go completely in the other direction and declare old age the new age of freedom. In a discussion of the themes of health, nutrition, sexuality, personal relationships, and developmental processes, the central theme remains the conviction that one can put even the most compromising changes that aging brings with it to productive use, and that aging offers us the chance to discover a new quality and an expanded meaning of life.
