"Heartfelt and ever-endearing - equal parts information and
inspiration. This is a book to keep by your bedside and return to
often." --Amy Dickinson, nationally syndicated advice columnist
"Ask Amy"
After a chance encounter with a remarkable ninety-year-old woman,
renowned gerontologist Karl Pillemer decided to find out what older
people know about life that the rest of us don't. His quest led him
to speak with a thousand Americans over the age of sixty-five--many
of whom can remember the Depression and World War II. While some of
their tales reaffirmed timeless wisdom, others surprised Pillemer
with the unexpected. Now with a new preface by Jane Brody, "30
Lessons for Living" distills their moving stories and hard-won
advice. To learn how to live without regret, persevere through hard
times, find fulfillment, and age fearlessly and well, there is no
one better to ask than the people who have done it themselves.
This beautiful paperback edition features deckled edges and french
flaps -- a perfect gift for any occasion.
