As someone who has always embraced change with enthusiasm (much like my mother), I feel vindicated that finally, the discussion around growing old has opened up. Fear and ignorance is being replaced by curiosity and possibilities. This book goes a long way in helping that process along-it puts the spotlight on the issues we try to ignore, from sex to senility and in doing so, helps us all-old and young-to discover the potential of the sunset years. I'm surprised to find that my life has become so much more interesting to me as I've aged, and I hope many more will be thus surprised! Ratna Pathak Shah, Actor Getting older doesn't have to mean your life stops! Rethink Ageing brilliantly explores finding new meaning, passion and excitement at an older age. Dr Marshall Goldsmith, Thinkers50 #1 Executive Coach and New York Times Bestselling Author It is heartening that a book on ageing is being written which does not treat it as an affliction or disability. There is much that one can do irrespective of age and among those things is work to help improve one's immediate surroundings and provide such help as one is qualified to give. More importantly, one can lead a full life meeting people in different groups - literary groups or bridge, chess or other groups. Not of the old, but of those who share the same interests. My warmest congratulations to those who thought of this book. I'm sure it will be of interest to all those interested in the subjects covered and not just in old people. Bhaskar Ghose, IAS (Retd), former Secretary to the Government of India, Ministry of Information & Broadcasting and Ministry of Culture
