Synopsis "Journey from Invisibility to Visibility: A Guide for Women Sixty and Beyond"

As they entered their sixties, authors Gail K. Harris, MEd, LCSW; Marilyn C. Lesser, PhD, LCSW; and Cynthia T. Soloway, JD, MSSW, MA, realized that they all had anxieties and fears about aging. They soon discovered they weren't alone and that many women were looking for support and encouragement as they aged, so they decided to write a guide to accepting and enjoying life after sixty. They conducted a series of interviews with women about the challenges that come up as they age and received an enthusiastic and passionate response. They have compiled the results from the more than two hundred interviews for this book. The responses reveal the challenges many women face as they grow older. Mass media bombards women with advertisements for antiaging products, implying natural aging is unacceptable when there is an abundant supply of makeup and creams, as well as plastic surgery, available to help them recapture their youth. Harris, Lesser, and Soloway, in contrast, celebrate the aging process. They show the insight experience brings. They explore the many facets of the women they interview, and each is given a voice in this powerful book.
