Psychologists Languirand and Bornstein penned this guide after
concluding that there was "no comprehensive, user-friendly book" that
addressed post-retirement living, which may mean remaining in one's own
home or moving to a new residence where one can live (and age) as
independently as possible. In easy-to-navigate chapters, the authors
cover topics including finances (IRAs, annuities); services (health care
and accessible shopping); and housing options (including how to
"retrofit" for future needs). Older readers will
find a wealth of practical suggestions from the authors a couple who,
nearing retirement age themselves, amicably confess to having given up
spicy wings and to taking a "tumble" while out conducting their own
neighborhood "walkability" test.--Publisher's Weekly
