"Butler questions the value of long life for its own sake; modern
medicine, he says, has ironically created 'a huge group of people
for whom survival is possible but satisfaction in living elusive.'
He proposes sweeping policy reforms to redefine and restructure the
institutions responsible for what he calls 'the tragedy of old age
in America.'" -New York Times Book Review "Crammed with facts that
explode old myths." -Boston Globe "Heavily documented, highly
readable . . . jammed with recommendations for constructive change
in every area." -Science "I commend it for clarity and lucidity,
unpretentiousness and comprehensiveness . . . I think it is a
classic." -Karl Menninger M.D.
