Over the Hill

Based on the articles published in his successful newspaper column, ‘Over the Hill’, this book is a collection of writing on all matters pertaining to the retired life from the mind of the late Professor Ken Strongman – acclaimed academic, university manager, and writer. In the spirit of his musing, the intention is to inform, educate, entertain, and to empathise with the reader on a variety of topics affecting the experience of contemporary life from the recent past, the perspective of a senior citizen. Knowing that retirement presents many challenges and adjustments to a great many people Ken would have wanted this book to be enjoyed by a wide range of readers and among contemplative people who are themselves retired or about to retire.
