Should I Close the Door?
The moment of retirement in the society of eternal youth.
Upon retiring as a professor at the Faculty of Law of the University of Lisbon, more than forty-five years after beginning his teaching career, Professor Eduardo Paz Ferreira, PhD, challenges in Should I Close the Door? ideas of the end of a cycle and of a career, extending the scope of the analysis not only to the academic path, but to all professional activity.
Should I Close the Door? is a rare and interesting biography, because that is what the life of its author has been, yet it easily sheds any label when framed within the theme of ageism and the pressures on older people, exploring classic teachings, divergent schools of thought, and contemporary cultures.
This is not a book exclusively for lawyers, much less for older lawyers. It is a work for people of all professions and ages, which shows us that a long journey and a duty fulfilled are not the end of anything.
