This is an extended edition of the latest work by the famous psychologist Eric Erickson, covering the entire life cycle of a person, which was made possible thanks to his wife and colleague Joan Erickson. She was involved in the development of the concept of the eight stages of human development, and Erickson himself admitted that he could not distinguish his contribution from his wife’s. What Erickson has failed to embrace in his lifetime of remarkable achievement is stage nine, a very advanced age. As human life expectancy increases, this stage becomes increasingly important for many people concerned about the quality and nature of everyday life in old age. Joan Erickson, who was in her nineties at the time of the book's creation, masterfully talks about the specific challenges and joys of old age, expanding Erik Erickson's vision of human development in its major stages. Joan writes about the special difficulties faced by people in old age, outlines the crucial role that hope and faith must play in the lives of eighty- and ninety-year-olds, and revises the concept of wisdom.
