How to Retire

Retirement is often presented as a financial date followed by permanent leisure. The reality is more personal and considerably more complicated. This book examines how to prepare for the change in time, identity, routine and relationships that comes when paid work ends. It offers practical ways to build days worth looking forward to, recognise the emotional adjustments involved and approach retirement as an active stage of life rather than a long weekend without a Monday.
