While the possibility of crises is not ignored, a generally optimistic view is presented. The subjective experience of and various styles of dealing with the midcareer transition are described in the context of the human life cycle. Various psychological and environmental antecedents are described to provide an understanding of the events that occur at midlife. Considerations on smoothing the transition are discussed, as well as aspects of the sequel to a successful transition.
