60 on Up

Getting old sucks says best-selling author Dr. Lillian Rubin. With refreshing candor she digs down under the statistics about our graying population and offers a provocative and unflinching examination of all the burning issues that mark aging today. Tackling the subject over a broad swath of the population cutting across race class gender and physical and cognitive ability Rubin delivers a powerful and long-overdue reminder that everyone will be touched by the problems arising from our new longevity.
