''There''s no such thing as an inevitable midlife crisis'', Barbara Bradley Hagerty writes in this provocative, hopeful book. New scientific research explodes the fable that midlife is a time when things start to go downhill for everybody. In fact, midlife can be a great new adventure, when you can embrace fresh possibilities, purposes and pleasures. In Life Reimagined, Hagerty explains that midlife is about renewal: It''s the time to renegotiate your purpose, refocus your relationships, and transform the way you think about the world and yourself.
