Presents the key findings from the survey, Midlife in the US (MIDUS) conducted by the MacArthur Foundation, on physical health, quality of life and psychological well-being, and the contexts of midlife.

How Healthy Are We? redefines 'middle age' for scientists and for the rest of our society by debunking the myth of the midlife crisis and revealing the reality of middle age in America today." - Jack W.
