Book excerpt: “If you’ve ever enjoyed a visit to Mitford, you’ll relish a visit to Fairacre.” —Jan Karon After many years of teaching in the charming English village of Fairacre, Miss Read settles down to what she hopes will be a relaxing retirement. But, of course, it is not entirely so. Having bid farewell to her pupils at Fairacre School, Miss Read finds herself as busy and in demand as ever: on holiday in Florence, helping with church and school affairs, and offering a kind ear to her often eccentric neighbors. Soon she is counseling Henry Mawne on his thorny marriage; gently resisting her own perennial suitor, John Jenkins; and finally discovering her talent for writing. Once again, Miss Read’s affection for the minutiae of village life, her love of nature, and her good humor make her excellent company.ally important. And if we can’t live in her world, it’s certainly a comforting place to visit.”—USA Today

Book excerpt: This book is not your normal politically correct, self-help book on retirement. It is not a result of attending seminars, workshops and conferences, nor countless readings on the subject. You know about those books- you've read them and they are boring, mundane, cliche, and definitely not fun. William Peace has experienced a whole new, exciting and surreal retirement over the last nine years. Is there life after work, he asks? You bet and it's wonderful. Follow the invigorating and inspiring DNA of Retirement Life in this collection and you, too, can thrive instead of just survive. Here are some of Peace's "dreamy, unreal, fantastic" suggestions: Only do one big activity per day. Never ever live in a boring town again. Never eat what you don't want to eat. Never again take morning flights. Guys, grow your hair long, get the look back that you had in the '70s. Don't pick up any new hobbies. If alone and feeling uncomfortable, then try noise. For a great day out with the grandkids, visit the recycle can-eater at the grocery store. Never stop appreciating beautiful, passionate, and emotional people. Strive for excellence vs. perfection. Do your net worth statement in your head, monthly. WILLIAM D. PEACE, JR. retired from Procter & Gamble in 2007 after 32 years in management positions in North America, Latin America, Western Europe, and Asia. Peace considers his greatest accomplishment during retirement as being one of the founding fathers of Executives for the Extraordinary, working with the World Vision Foundation of Thailand building schools and libraries in Asia for children in need. Peace is the author of Supply Chain Management: The Real WOW Factor, published in 2011. "

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The distinguishing feature for many workers in South Korea is contractual – and often involuntary – retirement at a young age (mid-50s for most workers) followed by precarious and low-paying self-employment or contract work. In the past this practice, which is also found in other East Asian nations, provided firms with a youthful and highly productive workforce. However, with a rapidly aging population and shifts in the labour market, the existing arrangement is becoming less and less functional. This book examines how this retirement arrangement arose, and the policy reforms that have been both undertaken and proposed to allow workers to remain employed longer. The analysis focuses on the institutional constraints to reforms, as well as the impact forced retirement has on individuals. Using a multi-disciplinary and comparative approach, the authors study contractual mandatory retirement trends and policies in South Korea, and in doing so illuminate the political, social, legal, economic and labour market implications of this widespread practice. As nations across Asia face aging populations, this book will be welcomed by students and scholars interested in Korean studies, social policy, social welfare and gerontology. It will also be of great value to policy makers.
