About this book

Through their scientific research and clinical practice husband and wife team Gene D. Cohen and Wendy L. Miller uncovered new clues about how the aging mind can build resilience and continue growth even during times of grave illness thus setting aside the traditional paradigm of aging as a time of decline. Sky Above Clouds tells the inside story of how attitude community creativity and love shape a life with or without health even to our dying. Cohen and Miller draw deeply on their own lessons learned as they struggle through aging illness and loss within their own family and eventually Cohens own untimely death.
