Life in our 70's presents unique challenges as anyone already in or nearing that decade well knows. That's why readers of Judy Kugel's 70-Something: Life, Love and Limits in the Bonus Years frequently find themselves nodding in recognition. In this book, based on her popular blog that The New York Times described as "quietly dramatic," Kugel shares often tender, inevitably wise, and frequently humorous insights into life during her eighth decade. Kugel describes her sense of loss on leaving her work community after thirty-three years at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government and her successful quest for an engaging retirement. Her candid descriptions of married life, parenting, health issues, and friendships offer a sensitive look at how aging shapes our relationships. Kugel's scope is broad. Enjoy her take on travel, food, and exercise. You'll relate to her attempts at wrinkle eradication, to seeing her mother in the mirror and to reminding herself to be grateful for every day of her bonus years.

Judy Kugel retired as Associate Dean of Students at Harvard's John F. Kennedy School of Government in 2013. She has counseled people making career and life choices since 1970 when she co-founded the Boston Project for Careers, a nonprofit organization that developed opportunities for men and women who were seeking part-time jobs, often after being at home with young children. The Boston Project for Careers was one of the first organizations to promote job-sharing for professionals. Her personal essays and travel articles have appeared in magazines and major newspapers including The New York Times and The Boston Globe. She has explored life transitions throughout her career and led several workshops on that subject. An avid writer of journals, she went public in 2008, when she started her twice-weekly blog at www.70-something.com In her "retirement," she is a consultant, a coach, a blogger and a grandmother (in reverse order of importance). A graduate of the University of Michigan with a B.A. in Political Science, she received a M.Ed. in Counseling Psychology from Boston College.
