Synopsis

Retirement has come to have a devastating impact on marriages, and Dr. Sara Yogev, a psychologist specializing in work-family issues, explores this thoroughly in this engaging, warm, and incisive book. Yogev's work in this area reveals that even the most happily married couples experience great difficulty coping with everything from "premature retirement" to "unrealistic expectations fostered by the media and baby-boomer consciousness." Relying on vivid case studies from her own practice, Yogev explains why retirement is much harder psychologically on couples today than in years past and offers techniques and tools for preserving relationships threatened by problems that arise after retirement.
