This small book is easy to read and presents facts clearly and in a manner that facilitates application to one’s own life when preparing for, and encountering the joys and challenges faced by most people when dealing with the end of life. Eastwood views this book as being relevant for “people who have questions about the end of life – what to expect, how to prepare for it, (and) what to do when you get there” (p. 3). He provides numerous opportunities for the reader to become aware of and be attentive to their own feelings and assumptions and examine these in relation to the end-of-life process. Finishing our story: Preparing for the end of life is packed with helpful general information that can assist in navigating the uncharted waters often found when grappling with the end-of-life journey. Personal stories and professional vignettes are interwoven throughout the chapters and address shared human conditions and beliefs; clearly enhancing the reader’s understanding of the content. The book is organized in a logical manner leading the reader to consider historical concepts on end-of-life, how one defines/redefines their own personal “quality of their life” as the journey progresses, and presents potential ethical issues that may arise between and among the individual, family, and friends. Eastwood also addresses legal instruments that can be used to make one’s wishes known (ie. Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care, DNR/DNI – Do Not Resuscitate/Do Not Intubate, POLSTPhysician’s Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment), the possible need for, and use of, an ethics committee or consultant, palliative care as it relates to hospice care, and alternatives for medical aid in dying/physician-assisted death and voluntary stopping and drinking [VSED] in states that have legal statutes allowing for these. The last two sections, of course, are fluid as time moves forward and need to be read and updated within the context of changes after early 2019 (ie. the Palliative Care Delivery Model for patients who are diagnosed with chronic diseases but who are not yet in need of hospice, and changes in the “end life option act/right to die” legislation). Finally, Eastwood concludes with a discussion about legacy building and how reflecting on one’s life and communicating one’s life story to others as a helpful way to manage the end-of-life journey and make it more fulfilling. Finishing our story: Preparing for the end of life is a good adjunct book for all people wanting to learn about the personal and practical aspects surrounding the end-of-life journey. Eastwood’s three gifts to the reader include: 1) a better understanding of lived experiences at the end of life; 2) concrete ways to assist with “Finis","PeriodicalId":45731,"journal":{"name":"Activities Adaptation & Aging","volume":"45 1","pages":"260 - 260"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2021-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/01924788.2021.1916314","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48885835","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, these two activities have not been compare on their cognitive effects. So, this study compares the cognitive functioning of healthy older adults engaging in AET by playing Newcomb ball (volleyball-based game) versus those who participated in TT. Participants were 20 healthy older adults (10 women), 60–78 years of age, with an average education of 10.8 years and practitioners of AET or TT. The composition of the groups was controlled with respect to age, sex, schooling, and periodicity and time of practice of each activity. Neuropsychological functions of planning, working memory, cognitive flexibility, inhibition, and learning were evaluated. A high normal neuropsychological performance was observed in the AET group in the majority of the normalized scores for almost all the cognitive areas studied, whereas the TT group showed high average performance only in inhibition and cognitive flexibility. Although the results indicate that AET is a better option than TT as a protective factor against the cognitive decline that comes along with aging, TT cannot be ruled out as an option for elderly with physical limitations.","PeriodicalId":45731,"journal":{"name":"Activities Adaptation & Aging","volume":"46 1","pages":"141 - 158"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2021-04-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/01924788.2021.1910152","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42413699","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address such barriers, a neighborhood-based Seniors’ Satellite program was implemented. We explored the benefits of participating in this program, and barriers and facilitators to participation, through a mixed methods program evaluation. The Satellite attracted older adults at risk of isolation and those more socially connected, from the local neighborhood and more distant areas. Findings suggest program participants valued the combination of social contact, exercise, and fun, in a local, friendly setting, and gained social and health benefits.","PeriodicalId":45731,"journal":{"name":"Activities Adaptation & Aging","volume":"46 1","pages":"190 - 217"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2021-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/01924788.2021.1910153","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45311377","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is positive in that the links should continue to work, but negative in that readers are surrounded by potentially misleading sites that could lead people to misinformation. Another of the book’s strengths is that many readers will be comforted by the summary of the impodgzrtance of spirituality (see p. 62 and following) for both the caregiver and the care recipient. The research is approached critically, as befits a scientific appraisal.

A series of three-line syllogisms was used to measure both probabilistic and deductive reasoning while physical testing was carried out using the Senior Fitness Test (SFT). Results showed deductive reasoning to be positively correlated with the SFT, particularly lower body strength (chair stands; r = .40), aerobic fitness (2-minute step test; r = .37), and agility/dynamic balance (8-foot up-and-go [smaller score is better]; r = −.29).

The author focuses on motivating men over 50 to take responsibility for their own health and make healthy changes. Its intent is to present a concrete framework to set personal goals and ways to ensure change endures. This book is targeted to the lay public, specifically men over 50 years of age, though it might have value to men younger or even women as well. There are numerous positive approaches reviewed and These are grounded in social theory. Many of the conclusions reached in this book are a result of surveys and research conducted by the author. However, the generalization of characteristics of men over 50 did not fit my lived experience. It started out with a great framework and suggested approach, but then got muddled in stories and eclectic organization. I think Crack the Code: 10 Proven Secrets that Motivate Healthy Behavior and Inspire Fulfillment in Men Over 50 might be good reading for someone looking for theory-based approaches to positive psychology and change theory.
