Are you tired of the aches and pains that come with getting older? Do you wonder what the years after 45 have in store for you? Crowley and Lodge have the answers and the rules. Exercise, good eating, friendships, and passion are the keys to wellness. Norman Dietz portrays Crowley, a 70-something retired lawyer who bikes, hikes, skis, and flirts with the ladies. Richard Harries is Doctor Lodge, who explains the medicine and science, and encourages listeners to follow his rules. Dietz/Crowley is charismatic, and his stories will leave you alternately laughing and crying. Harries/Lodge will leave you thoughtful. This audiobook will make you get out of the car and walk or bike with your portable CD player. M.B.K. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award (c) AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine -

Crowley and Lodge rework their bestselling Younger Next Year
(which targeted men) to address health and aging concerns for women. Former attorney Crowley's chatty voice alternates with internist-gerontologist Lodge's straightforward medical perspective. The authors promise that major lifestyle changes, including a six-days-a-week exercise regime, and a positive view of aging will make the "next third" of life—the stage after menopause—the most fulfilling. Because women live longer, are highly motivated for change and fear aging less than men do, the authors contend, they will reap great benefits from the program. Crowley and Lodge put their own spin on commonsense health essentials, with Lodge adding information on the latest antiaging breakthroughs. A variety of activities (biking, skiing, sailing, yoga) will likely make the intensive exercise plan more enjoyable. Although there is little new material, women may find the 71-year-old Crowley's cheerleading appealing—the old buddy tone of the previous edition is exchanged for that of a male "girlfriend"—and a great motivator not only for making lifestyle changes but for equating health with how one feels, not how one looks.
