Journalist Zenith Henkin Gross guides readers to discover their own ways to express love, sensuality, and sexuality during the 20 to 40 years of life after they turn 60. Following her interviews with more than 300 men and women, she uncovers the elements of and barriers to happiness that cross ethic, economic, religious and cultural boundaries. This book helps dispel the myths of ageing and illuminates how good romance - and sex can be. Gross culled 153 personal accounts for this book, including both average men and woman and famous elders such as Nelson Mandela (remarried at 80); Carolyn Heilbrun (author, teacher and feminist); William Segal (businessman and Zen teacher); and Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee (actors married more than 50 years).
