This new updated edition is useful, comprehensive, and well-written." -- Arkansas Times "Intended for general readers, this volume clearly explains various aspects of aging in nontechnical language.

It is an educational and informational resource, easy to read, practical and useful." -- Eugene J. Rogers, M.D., Chicago Medicine "Readily accessible and easily understood by general readers, this source is highly recommended for college and university libraries, and for any reader interested in aging, old age, or gerontology in the contemporary U.S." -- Choice
