It explains how the aging of the Baby Boomers will forever change our lives, businesses, government programs, and the consumer marketplace. This exciting new stage of life, the “Third Age,” poses daunting questions:

- What new products and services will boom as a result of this coming longevity revolution?
- What unconscious ageist marketing practices are hurting people – and business growth?
- Will the majority of elder boomers outlive their pensions and retirement savings and how can this financial disaster be prevented?
- What incredible new technologies of medicine, life extension, and human enhancement await us in the near future?
- What purposeful new roles can we create for elder boomers so that the aging nations of the Americas, Europe, and
- Asia capitalize on the upsides of aging?
- Which pioneering organizations and companies worldwide have created marketing strategies and programs that resonate with the quirky and demanding Boomer generation?
In this entertaining, thought-provoking and wide-ranging book, Dychtwald and Morison explain how individuals, businesses, non-profits and governments can best prepare for a new era–where the needs and demands of the “Third Age” will set the lifestyle, health, social, marketplace, and political priorities of generations to come.
