THIS IS AN EXCELLENT BOOK!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This book has great depth on the subject of growing older yet is very easy to read. I recommend this book to every member of the 'baby boom' generation! Designed as a textbook, anyone at all levels can benefit greatly from the insight that Growing Older provides.
