Summary:
"
Women
growing older contend with ageism, misogyny, and loss. Yet as Mary Pipher shows, most older
women
are deeply happy and filled with gratitude for the gifts of
life
. Their struggles help them grow into the authentic, empathetic, and wise people they have always wanted to be. In
Women
Rowing
North
, Pipher offers a timely examination of the cultural and developmental issues
women
face as they
age
. Drawing on her own experience as daughter, sister, mother, grandmother, caregiver, clinical psychologist, and cultural anthropologist, she explores ways
women
can cultivate resilient responses to the challenges they face. "If
we
can keep our wits about us, think clearly, and manage our emotions skillfully," Pipher writes, "
we
will experience a joyous time of our lives. If
we
have planned carefully and packed properly, if
we
have good maps and guides, the journey can be transcendent.""--From publisher.
