Aging does not happen only to individuals, it also happens to families. Ours is an aging society, with four? and even five-generation families becoming increasingly common.
These two seemingly simple statements have complicated repercussions across all dimensions. For therapists specifically, the support role will have to be expanded and adapted to incorporate the myriad challenges faced by an ever-growing number of families with older members.
In this important new book, authors Hargrave and Anderson effectively translate the "aging process" from an abstract, nebulous concept into a concrete stage of life with attendant struggles and opportunities, just as in any other life phase. Above all, they emphasize the need for compassion, realism, and honesty in dealing with the often heart-breaking issues involved in confronting death; and they stress the need to "balance the family ledger" in order to Finish Well.
