Description
In this revised, expanded, and updated edition of the best-selling Midlife Man, Dr. Art Hister reflects on the changes he has gone through as a midlife man since the first edition was published in 1998. A new chapter on the psychological changes wrought by middle age discusses depression, stress, and anxiety, as well as changes in relationships with partners, aging parents, and grown or almost grown children. In addition, there is new material on dealing with joint problems, following a healthy lifestyle, and preventing disease; the latest diets; the most current information on erectile dysfunction and other sexual health problems; and the pros and cons of cosmetic surgery. The book has also been updated throughout.
