Playing Life's Second Half: A Man's Guide for Turning Success into Significance

This is not a book about the male mid-life crisis. Instead, it is an exploration of the shift in focus a man experiences as he progresses into the more mature years of his life. Learn what it means to be an older man in our culture, and what physical and psychological changes to expect as you move into your second half century of life. Find meaning through spiritual exploration. Develop depth by reinvesting in your intimate relationships and community. Without being preachy or abstract, this book gives practical advice about dealing with crises of identity, mortality, and belonging.
