Carl H. Klaus, "The Ninth Decade: An Octogenarian's Chronicle"
English | ISBN: 1609387864 | 2021 | 188 pages | EPUB | 1526 KB
The Ninth Decade is a path-breaking and timely book on aging: the first to focus explicitly and at length on eighty-somethings, the fastest-growing demographic in the industrialized world. Covering eight years in lively six-month installments, Klaus tells a vivid story not only of his own ninth decade and survival routines, but also of his loving companion, Jackie, who is strikingly different from him in her physical well-being, practical outlook, sociable temperament, and vigorous workouts. Cameos of their octogenarian friends and relatives near and far add to a wide-ranging and revelatory portrayal of advanced aging, as do bios of notable octogenarians.

The Last Resort: A Chronicle of Paradise, Profit, and Peril at the Beach (Audiobook)
English | June 28, 2022 | ASIN: B09NDZN1Q1 | M4B@64 kbps | 11h 50m | 345 MB
Author: Sarah Stodola | Narrator: Ann Marie Gideon
A captivating exploration of beach resort culture-from its roots in fashionable society to its undervalued role in today's world economy-as the industry approaches a climate reckoning.
With its promise of escape from the strains of everyday life, the beach has a hold on the popular imagination as the ultimate paradise. In The Last Resort, Sarah Stodola dives into the psyche of the beachgoer and gets to the heart of what drives humans to seek out the sand. At the same time, she grapples with the darker realities of resort culture: strangleholds on local economies, reckless construction, erosion of beaches, weighty carbon footprints, and the inevitable overdevelopment and decline that comes with a soaring demand for popular shorelines.
