What to expect

Bloomsbury presents The Ten Steps of Positive Ageing written and read by Guy Robertson.

Can ageing really be a positive experience? Yes.

You can make a difference to your own ageing process. Research shows that how we think about ageing can have a significant impact on our health and wellbeing in later life. The Ten Steps of Positive Ageing challenges and debunks the inaccurate and negative attitudes that may be contaminating your outlook on getting older, and provides a clear, practical road map for exerting more choice and control over the ageing process.

Concentrating on the psychological and emotional aspects of getting older, and deploying a range of personal development techniques, The Ten Steps of Positive Ageing provides you with the keys to a happier and more fulfilled later life.

This is the book for those of us who want to do ageing differently.

The Centre for Ageing Better

Our ageing and our longer lives are too often seen as problems rather than opportunities. It is good to have a book that makes the ‘case for the defence’. In his new book The Ten Steps of Positive Ageing, Guy Robertson sets out a balanced view of the plusses and minuses of ageing.
