Do you feel that you are in the middle of your life, stuck, with the excitement of day-to-day living slowly ebbing away? Do you wonder whether this is really it? Whether there is something more?
These are common questions, and Three Adult Lives offers a powerful answer.
We are conditioned from birth — assigned labels, fed beliefs, handed a script and told to follow it. By the time we reach adulthood we have spent two decades absorbing the values, expectations, and behaviours of the world around us without ever questioning whether they are truly our own. Most of us simply carry on, walking the path laid out for us, never pausing to ask: who am I choosing to be?
Three Adult Lives argues that real adulthood does not begin until around thirty. From that point, the sixty or so years that remain can be approached as three distinct lives of roughly twenty years each — a first life to Build, a second to Reinvent, and a third to Flourish. This shift in perspective is liberating. It means that whatever stage you are at, there is always another life ahead of you, full of possibility.
Drawing on Western philosophy, Buddhist thought, evolutionary psychology and deeply personal experience, Stephen Castree takes you on a journey of self-discovery — examining who you really are, how you arrived here, and how to define your own philosophy for living. Along the way he explores the nature of the self, the question of free will, what it means for a life to be meaningful, and how to build the mental habits that allow you to truly change.
This second edition includes a new Foreword, updated reflections, and an expanded philosophical toolkit to help you start living your next life — today.
One life. Three chapters. The next one starts now.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
