About Old skin

Old Skin is an intimate investigation into the fear of aging in women, the mechanisms of ageism, which are put in place from childhood, and the sexist double standard of aging, which makes women invisible from the moment they are not not very young anymore. At the same time personal, well-documented and funny, this book is the most effective anti-ageism, which combats prejudices and strengthens natural defenses, for a visibly more enlightened mind, in just a few days.
