Produktbeschreibung
Each essay offers a unique perspective. The first is an autobiographical ramble that exemplifies how life is filled with unpredictable twists and turns. The second essay focuses on our physical experience on the Planet Earth-from its beginning to climate change and other challenges that threaten our very survival. The third essay is a discussion of the law, the tenuous glue that holds us together as a society, including commentary about the autocratic rule that threatens our democracy. The fourth essay concerns health care and its many components, arguably the most important concern in a person's lifetime. The final essay discusses the reality of retirement, a time in life we all face and the need to plan for it long before it happens. OK Boomer! gathers the informative insights of five aging Baby Boomers; while they cannot provide all the answers to existential questions, they offer a mindful perspective gleaned from a wide range of professional successes and lived experiences.
Autorenporträt
Bernard Mansheim was born on the leading edge of the Baby Boom generation. Having enjoyed a long professional career in medicine and business, he was among the first of his generation to face the challenges of retirement. The questions of When, Where, and How became his singular focus as the door to retirement opened. He dutifully studied options with his wife as they entered a heretofore unknown world. One product of their experience is a novel about a couple who confront the realities of retirement. Bernard previously authored a novel, Still a Doctor, which chronicled the professional life of a physician. Though fictional, it parallels his experiences through the course of his medical career.
