Reviews
Dr. Rosanne Leipzig has been an integral part of the fine work done at the Martha Stewart Centers for Living and the nationally recognized Brookdale Department of Geriatrics and Palliative Medicine at Mount Sinai Health System in New York City. Her new handbook on aging is full of clear, practical advice that will make the second half of your life safer, more productive, and more enjoyable. It is essential reading for anyone who is growing older or whose loved ones are growing older--in other words, for all of us! -- Martha Stewart This book is excellent, and I would recommend it to my patients. It includes all of the things related to aging in one place. -- Ciandra Dsouza, MD, MPH, University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry Building on her lifetime of rich experience and leadership in the field of geriatrics, Rosanne M. Leipzig synthesizes decades of insights into an indispensable guide to ones latter years. Among many valuable contributions, the book is notable in its attention to the diversity of the aging experience, including those who find themselves coming out later in life. As a non-profit executive in the aging space, as an LGBTQ+ community activist, and perhaps most importantly as a human being who recently turned sixty, I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a resource that wisely, frankly, and sensitively approaches the realities and uncertainties of getting older. -- Michael Adams, SAGE, Advocacy and Services for LGBTQ+ Elders Among the many books devoted to helping all of us to understand the aging process, Dr. Leipzigs Honest Aging sets a new standard. Her writing is crisp and readable for all of us who wish to understand these important years of our own lives as well as help us in engaging and working with older adults. I give her my highest praise. I wish I had written this book! -- William J. Hall, MD, MACP, Professor Emeritus of Medicine and Geriatrics. Department of Medicine, University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry Aging exists in the shadows of the future. It holds promises of fulfillment and possible harvesting of professional and personal gardens. But it also portends failing health, burdensome medical interventions and prospects of debility. How can we successfully navigate the pathways of hope given the challenges to be encountered? This wonderful book highlights what to expect as we age and provides the intellectual and emotional framework for future positive and frightening events. -- Nancy Neveloff Dubler, LL.B., Consultant for Ethics, NYC Health + Hospitals; Professor Emerita, The Albert Einstein College of Medicine/Montefiore Medical Center
