Must reading for aging boomers
If you have ever dealt with parents who have waited too long to plan for aging, this book provides very thought provoking information that all baby-boomers need to heed. A realistic vision of aging can help one transition from what may seem like eternal youth to the inevitable stages of decreasing energy and increasing frailty. Proper planning- both financially and mentally - are covered by the authors. Taking the right mental attitude into the years after 55 may be the key to successfully aging. I have recommended this book to all my friends and consider it one of the most important I have read this year.

A Journey Called Aging: Challenges and Opportunities in Older Adulthood presents an insightful exploration of the years between the entry into older adulthood and death. This text examines the significant changes and major landmarks of older persons between 60 and 90.

The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind.
