Summary:
"From one of the country's most recognizable journalists: how becoming a grandmother transforms a woman's life. Lesley Stahl says the most vivid and transforming experience of her life was not covering the White House, interviewing heads of state, or any other of her stories at 60 Minutes. It was becoming a grandmother. She was hit with a jolt of joy so intense and unexpected, she wanted to "investigate" it. She explores how grandmothering changes a woman's life, interviewing her friends like Whoopi Goldberg, her colleagues like Diane Sawyer, and the proverbial woman next door. On top of these personal accounts, she interviews scientists and doctors about physiological changes in women when they have grandchildren, anthropologists about why there are grandmothers in evolutionary terms, and psychiatrists about the therapeutic effects of grandchildren on both grandmothers and grandfathers. In an era when Baby Boomers are becoming grandparents in droves, when young parents need all the help they can get raising their children, this is a timely read that explores a cherished relationship. Lesley Rene Stahl is an American television journalist. Since 1991, she has reported for CBS on 60 Minutes"--Provided by publisher.
