Publisher's Synopsis
Pasteurized is an engaging and helpful look at the mental transition that occurs when people retire. The author takes an amusing, but comprehensive look at the aspects of a happy and balanced life and the particular pitfalls that he encountered in his first year of retirement. He is very good at describing large concepts like pleasures vs gratifications and balancing them examples from his own experience.
Finally, remember that retirement is a transition and transitions take time. You have left a structured life and it might take time to "get a new life." So be patient.
