Amazon.com description: Product Description: When someone gives you a an AARP membership for a "milestone" birthday, or the watch you never wanted at that long awaited retirement party, then you've probably made the transition into the Third Third. Whether you've entered your "Third Third" or are curious about what awaits you, Claire Mitchel offers the message that these can be the best years of you life.

You will enjoy, as so many loyal readers of her column in The Miami Herald, how each story helps turn seemingly mundane experiences into special joys. Her ability to appreciate each distinct moment is truly what THE THIRD THIRD is all about. Indeed, THE THIRD THIRD reveals a philosophy which claims that life holds its best for last, or as Mitchel calls it, the "desert years." As no writer before her, she conveys this unique attitude with both humor and seriousness, making the THE THIRD THIRD the first candid look the way today's dynamic older Americans view it.

Join Claire Mitchel in this celebration of aging.
