Book excerpt: When adults think about recreation, they all too often focus on regimented workouts at the gym or a weekend at luxury spa. In this insightful new book Dr. Lenore Terr demonstrates that adults can clear their minds, recapture the optimism of youth and measurably improve the psychological quality of their adult lives by learning to play with the abandon they experienced as children. Terr points out the links between childhood games and adult activities and explains how play can become a natural part of everyday life. In an easy-going, fully accessible style, BEYOND LOVE AND WORK gives readers an exciting new perspective on the game of life and an unique "play-book" that will help them come out winners.
