A third regular feature is our Bookshelf in which we briefly review and recommend a specific book that relates to the theme of this issue. We have chosen George Valliant’s Triumphs of Experience, which is the capstone of a remarkable 70 year-long longitudinal study of men who had been students at Harvard University during the late 1930s and early 1940s. Filled with many insights about all stages of life (including the 70s, 80s and 90s), this book points the way to new work that might be done by coaches who wish to work with clients who are in their senior years:

Borrowing a tool developed by one of us [WB] for use with the International Consortium for Coaching in Organizations (ICCO), the Animation questions in the current issue focus on the implications of adult development theory for professional coaching practices:
