Bette Davis maintained "Old age is not for sissies." Still, it isn't something most of us want to avoid. So if you're heading for the downhill side of life's journey and intend to be successful at getting older, this book offers interesting, helpful, maybe even surprising information; often with tongue-in-cheek. The "don't miss" chapters include Am I Old Yet? (surefire indicators that you are), Paint Over Pain (a remarkable therapy for managing chronic pain), The High Cost of Living and Dying.
Read this book or you risk getting old at your own peril.
