How can you make the most of retirement? How should you plan for retirement? What are the challenges of retirement and how can they be dealt with?

It also emphasizes the value of pre-retirement planning, and the importance of establishing new goals and purposes. Retirement can be a period of significant psychological growth and development and The Psychology of Retirement shows how it can herald the beginning of a vibrant and active stage of life.
