The inevitable ageing process does not have to condemn us to solitude, suffering, degradation or dependency. In this eloquent meditation on ageing, Marie de Hennezel guides us through a true art of growing old'. She recalls her encounters as a clinical psychologist with extraordinary people who 'grow old gracefully' and through her experience shows us how to make the most of this time in our lives, to avoid depression and to stay happy. She believes that wherever we grow old and whatever our circumstances, if we can maintain energy in our hearts and believe in the power of joy and human warmth, this can transform us and the way we look at the world. This is a wonderful book with a powerful message that applies to everyone no matter how old they are. A bestseller in the author's native France, critics said: 'Marie de Hennezel explores the secret of eternal youth and provides us with the keys for a happy, free and spirited old age. A must read.' La Croix 'A message of happiness and wisdom for all ages.' Nouvelles Cles 'Marie de Hennezel delivers a wonderful lesson that will inspire anyone who wants to age without becoming old.' Le Figaro Magazine
