The authors' gentle tone and many helpful suggestions will make readers feel as if they are listening to a close friend." -Publishers Weekly This is a book about how to grow old-with the emphasis on "grow." The path of purposeful aging is accessible to all-and it's fundamental to health, happiness, and longevity. In their bestseller Repacking Your Bags, Richard J. Leider and David A.

Palmer, author of On the Brink of Everything.…
