"Debunks the idea that aging inevitably brings infirmity and unhappiness and instead offers a trove of practical, evidence-based guidance for living longer and better."
-Daniel H. Pink, author of When and Drive
SUCCESSFUL AGING delivers powerful insights:
• Debunking the myth that memory always declines with age
• Confirming that "health span"-not "life span"-is what matters
• Proving that sixty-plus years is a unique and newly recognized developmental stage
• Recommending that people look forward to joy, as reminiscing doesn't promote health
Levitin looks at the science behind what we all can learn from those who age joyously, as well as how to adapt our culture to take full advantage of older people's wisdom and experience. Throughout his exploration of what aging really means, using research from developmental neuroscience and the psychology of individual differences, Levitin reveals resilience strategies and practical, cognitive- enhancing tricks everyone should do as they age.
Successful Aging inspires a powerful new approach to how readers think about our final decades, and it will revolutionize the way we plan for old age as individuals, family members, and citizens within a society where the average life expectancy continues to rise.

POLITICAL AND SOCIAL RELEVANCE: As debates continue to rage in government and media about how social and healthcare systems should be responsible for elderly populations, Levitin's ideas about aging add a fresh perspective to these ongoing conversations-which media outlets will eat up.
A BRAIN BOOK FROM ONE OF THE CATEGORY'S LEADERS: Levitin helped to make the brain book category one of the big bestseller categories-and it still is.
OPTIMISTIC, GOOD NEWS PERSPECTIVE: Levitin's ideas position old age as something to be celebrated and enjoyed, rather than feared or endured. He uses scientific approaches to demonstrate that this life phase can be just as joyful as any other. It is very cheerful news!
