Summary:
"'What should I do with the rest of my life?' captures the singular lives of everyday, yet extraordinary "late bloomers" who have bravely embraced new callings, discovered unforseen pleasures, and overthrown the usual expectations of age. These men and women--activists, artists, athletes, inventors, entrepreneures, filmmakers, and others--demonstrate that, no matter what our age, we are able to transform ourselves, achieve significant goals, and blaze paths to true fulfillment." -- Cover, p. 2.
