THE NEW MIDDLE AGES: WOMEN IN MIDLIFE
In 2003, Jean Marmoreo's new book was published by Prentice Hall. Here's what it's about:
It’s time for a new take on middle age.With six million Canadian women now between 40 and 65, being female and middle aged is no longer a stage of life to be silent and invisible about.
Indeed, it’s a time to stand up, speak up and even leap up. That’s what Jean Marmoreo thinks.
Her new view on midlife is drawn from 25 years in the examining room as a privileged witness to the crucible of her patient’s lives. Gritty, honest, and empowering, The New Middle Ages does in print what good friends do all the time: share their stories in hopes that they’ll tap into each other’s knowledge, advice, comfort and strength.
Canadian women today are juggling more demands than ever: their careers, their kids, parents, partners, personal fulfillment – and the endless struggle to find time to manage it all.
But as the author says: “You can’t have it all, all the time. And that’s okay.”
