Synopsis
The prospect of spending long years in reasonable health and scarcely impaired activity, far beyond the convenient landmark of retirement, has already become the norm―without anybody really noticing it, let alone appreciating the implications. In this highly original and perhaps controversial book, Peter Laslett urges us to plan ahead for personal enrichment―before retirement and before the children leave home―before we reach the Third Age.

From the Back Cover
Everyone needs a fresh map of life, since we live in a world of relationships that we do not understand. The doubling of the duration of human life and the appearance in the last decade or two of the Third Age have transformed the landscape of everyone's experience.
