Elderhood: Redefining Aging, Transforming Medicine, Reimagining Life

Exquisitely written - Aronson advocates a new paradigm: a re-balancing act in which technology has a role but the focus returns to care. Unlike the high-tech, algorithmic march of modern medicine, her idea of truly personalized medicine incorporates the patients past experiences and current expectations. This integrative, humanistic model of geriatrics is rare. One can only hope its practices are adopted swiftly.” Nature
“Wise and engaging.” AARP Magazine
“Bracing, always compassionate.” Wall Street Journal, Best Books About Retirement and Aging of 2019
“A passionate, deeply informed critique of how our healthcare system fails in its treatment of the elderly. Vitally important. Though the subject of this book is the elderly, its message touches the entire span of human life.” Bookpage
