Breaking the Age Code

The often-surprising results of Yale professor Dr. Becca Levy's science offer stunning revelations about the mind-body connection. She demonstrates that many health problems formerly considered to be entirely due to the aging process, are instead influenced by the negative age beliefs that dominate in North America and other ageist countries. Levy presents not only easy-to-follow techniques for improving age beliefs so they can contribute to successful aging, but also a blueprint to reduce structural ageism for lasting change and an age-just society.
