Recenzje

'This book is a stigma stopper! The foreword alone is a treasure chest of positive regard and investment for the older adult … The book is a valuable effort, indeed, for anyone who believes that age does not reduce human value. This book is needed and meets its objectives at the highest level.' Charla Sue Waxman, Doody's Book Review Service
