Golden Men: The Power of Gay Midlife (2022) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781967361496)

The coming-out process has taught a gay man many lessons that are useful throughout his life. This book details the depth and range of these lessons which in combination with many of the unique life experiences, the gay man is actually well-prepared to successfully deal with his entrance into middle age and beyond. The sequential exercises facilitate a focused path for successful aging in comparison with other books on this topic. This book is unique in its exploration of the coming-out process and its relevance for a lifetime of successful aging. Though originally written and published in 2000 for gay men, the subsequent public response has shown that the exercises and the principles of aging are applicable to all people.

Charles Silverstein, Ph.D., author of The Joy of Gay Sex, writes: "(Golden Men) is certain to be the seminal work on gay middle age. . .Kooden's book belongs on the bookshelf of every gay man."
