Description and Table of Contents
Description
In 1900 average life expectancy was 47. In the 20th century, life expectancy doubled. Now at the beginning of midlife, a person can expect to live another whole life. Conscious living means not simply gathering chronological years but engaging in a psychological and spiritual movement within one's whole being. The stories in this book of creatively maturing adults come from famous as well as ordinary people and illustrate the profound insights of Carl Jung and Joan and Erik Erikson, the founders of adult developmental psychology. These life stories show how the emergence of dominant potentials can continue through the whole life span and how life's greatest achievements can come in the second half of life.
