Recenzii
"What is required is a new culture based on the science in which older people are expected to remain, or become increasingly active, physically, cognitively and emotionally maintaining or strengthening a strong sense of purpose. Europe is looking to Asia because this culture is more prevalent there than in Europe. The core theme is not one of ‘caring’ for a passive subset of the population but of promoting lifelong learning because knowledge is the elixir of life."
- Professor Sir Muir Gray, Founding Director, The Optimal Ageing Programme & Professor in the Nuffield Department of Surgery, University of Oxford
"This book offers much to those interested in issues impacting our elders. It demonstrates the universality of the dearth of adequate and appropriate science-based models for facilitating the promotion of living longer better rather than simply being a passive recipient of care." - Anna A Helm, Multnomah County
