Story
There’s a quiet revolution happening in the way we die. More than 1.5 million Americans a year die in hospice care - nearly 44 percent of all deaths - and a vast industry has sprung up to meet the growing demand. Once viewed as a New Age indulgence, hospice is now a $14 billion business and one of the most successful segments in health care. Changing the Way We Die, by award-winning journalists Fran Smith and Sheila Himmel, is the first book to take a broad, penetrating look at the hospice landscape.

Story
Our health care system is crippled by desperate efforts to prevent the inevitable. A third of the national Medicare budget - nearly $175 billion - is spent on the final year of life, and a third of that amount on the final month, often on expensive (and futile) treatments. Such efforts betray a fundamental flaw in how we think about healthcare: we squander resources on hopeless situations, instead of using them to actually improve health.

Story
Because of rapidly aging populations, the number of people worldwide experiencing dementia is increasing and the projections are grim. Despite hundreds of millions of dollars invested in medical research, no effective treatment has been discovered for Alzheimer's disease, the most common form of dementia. The Alzheimer Conundrum exposes the predicaments embedded in current efforts to slow down or halt Alzheimer's disease through early detection of presymptomatic biological changes in healthy individuals.

Story
“Old age is a shipwreck,” Charles de Gaulle once observed. Not so, says Herb Gold in this lively, often hilarious memoir of his first seven decades. He is clearly enjoying every moment to its fullest. This is a book about how time overtakes us, how reminiscence, loss, hope, pain, success, failure—the lifelong accumulation of dreams and reality—crowd about us with every passing day.

Story
Many doctors overlook the seemingly inexplicable tragedies and recoveries that happen in hospitals every day, opting to view them simply as aberrations from the medical norm. In this book, Dr. Marc Siegel draws from his decades of experience treating patients and explores the sometimes miraculous effects that the spirit and emotion can have on disease and healing. The inner pulse is the essence that links the soul to the mind and body, the marker that predicts whether a person's life force is fading.

In Remembering the Music, Forgetting the Words, Kate Whouley strips away the romantic veneer of mother-daughter love to bare the toothed and tough reality of caring for a parent who is slowly losing her mind. Yet, this is not a dark or dour look at the demon of Alzheimer’s. Whouley shares the trying, the tender, and the sometimes hilarious moments in meeting the challenge also known as Mom.

Agata vive con la nuora, vedova del suo unico figlio, e la nipote, madre di un bimbo di tre anni. Le piacciono i gioielli e gli abiti eleganti, ama guardarsi allo specchio e spazzolare a lungo i capelli, che ha di un bianco abbagliante. Emma vive sola, ha lavorato in una fabbrica di iuta e in seguito come cuoca in un convitto. Se ha freddo si butta sulle ginocchia una coperta che ha fatto con le sue mani. Cucina da sé i propri pasti e ogni giorno, dopo cena, si concede un bicchiere di liquore fatto in casa.

Story
Terra sconosciuta in cui ci inoltriamo lentamente, paese aspro da attraversare e da conquistare, la vecchiaia ha le sue grandi ombre, le sue insidie e le sue fragilità, ma non va separata dalla vita: fa parte del cammino dell'esistenza e ha le sue chances. È il tempo di piantare alberi per chi verrà. Vecchiaia è arte del vivere, che possiamo in larga parte costruire, a partire dalla nostra consapevolezza, dalle nostre scelte, dalla qualità della convivenza che coltiviamo insieme agli altri, mai senza gli altri, giorno dopo giorno.

Story
Questo saggio vuole fornire alcune indicazioni su come affrontare i problemi della vecchiaia con serenità e sicurezza. L'autrice non parte da considerazioni etiche, sociologiche o psicologiche, bensì scientifiche, con le quali dimostra che il cervello umano invecchiando perde alcune prerogative, ma le sostituisce con altre che in parte compensano e superano quelle perdute. L'autrice accompagna la sua dimostrazione con una serie di esempi di personalità attive fino alla vecchiaia, come Michelangelo, Galileo Galilei, Bertrand Russell e Pablo Picasso.

Was bedeutet es, wenn die Eltern alt werden? Bestsellerautor Volker Kitz erzählt in seinem literarischen Essay die Geschichte seines Vaters und erkundet an ihr exemplarisch, wie sich familiäre Verantwortung verschiebt, wenn Eltern alt werden. Sein Buch berührt die Gefühle und Fragen einer ganzen Generation. "Bleibt bei mir", bittet der Vater seine zwei Söhne, als die Erinnerung ihn verlässt. Bis dahin war Erinnerung für Volker Kitz kein Thema. Sie funktionierte, der Vater funktionierte, die Familie funktionierte. Doch eines Tages verunglückt die Mutter, und das Schicksal nimmt seinen Lauf.

Viel weniger bekannt und weit weniger erforscht sind die psychischen Symptome, die mit der Menopause einhergehen können. Dabei durchleben die meisten Frauen in den fünf bis zehn Jahren dieser Lebensphase vor allem auch eine mentale Transformation.
