Stan Goldberg, PhD, Professor Emeritus in the Department of Language and Hearing Disorders at San Francisco State University, has written 195 articles, seven chapters, and nine books published in four languages. He has received 26 national and international awards including Best Buddhist Writings of 2010 (along with Thich Nhat Hanh) and The London Book Festival Grand Prize Winner. His website is stangoldbergwriter.com.

Clinician and counselor Goldberg blends research on the brain and communication together with personal and client experience to analyze the phenomena of “senior moments” (i.e., the forgetfulness that prompts questions like Why did I just walk into this room? What is that person’s name? Why do I remember that experience so differently from the person with whom I shared it?) …. Most reassuring is Goldberg’s advice that readers accept themselves as they are and get plans in place to head off future struggles. Older readers will feel both understood and inspired by Goldberg’s practical suggestions.
