* Encourages the reader to embrace sexuality and aging, and to enjoy intimate and pleasurable experiences throughout their aging years.
* Challenges two embedded cultural myths: that people over 60 should not or cannot be sexual, and that the best way to be sexual is by emphasizing eroticism and ‘kinky’ sex.
* Presents a healthy model of sexuality that values desire/pleasure/eroticism/satisfaction, and prioritises pleasure-oriented touching, rather than individual sexual performances.
* Covers topics which are often of concern, such as using medical interventions, illnesses/disabilities, desire and satisfaction, and coming to terms with the ‘new normal’.
* Written by highly esteemed, husband-and-wife writing team, Barry and Emily McCarthy.
