Riassunto

A licensed clinical social worker, Freeman has put together a guide to help baby boomers navigate the rest of their lives with ease and confidence. Key areas of love, work, money, and health are addressed via Q&As; the answers all revolve around using one's own instincts and intuition through the three "syns"-synchronicity, synergy, and synthesis. Freeman believes that readers should follow their dreams but also build a sound financial portfolio and a good medical team. As enjoyable to browse as it is to read from cover to cover, this book is recommended for all public libraries. (from the Self-Help column by Deborah Bigelow)
