Summary |
Examines the latest theories and research on how aging affects cognition, memory, social relationships, emotion, physical and mental health, and responses to psychotherapy. The findings presented show that although later life brings inevitable decline and losses, aging also fosters positive characteristics such as wisdom, emotional maturity, and the ability to engage in proactive strategies for shaping one's life in meaningful ways.
