What is a good life in old age? Does one have to accept aging, or is it worth rebelling against it? And when is it appropriate to call a person "old" anyway? Nadine Mooren explores these and similar questions, showing that aging is not only a physical event, but an integral part of human self-experience, and that reflecting on age, personal goals, and limited abilities can also be meaningful before actually approaching old age. By way of including classical and contemporary positions, the author points to when it is advisable to fight old age, discusses the value of stoic composure and why to accept and regret the consequences of old age at the same time is not necessarily mutually exclusive.
