How will my relationships be reaffirmed? What do I care about? What can I create and contribute to the world?</em></p><p>Meet Jim Brierley, who was still jumping out of planes aged eighty-eight.

Yet rather than focusing on the productive, rich, varied lives older people lead we dwell on the burden of ageing. <em>In Praise of Ageing</em> tells the stories of eight people who have lived well into their nineties and beyond. These people will inspire you, entertain you and motivate you to be connected, interested, risk-taking and inventive. They will challenge your preconceptions.

Phillip Adams</p><p>With her characteristic passion, Patricia Edgar has exploded the myth that an ageing population is unrelieved bad news for our social and economic future. This book is bursting with intellectual energy: if Edgars rational arguments dont convince you, her human stories will. Hugh Mackay</p><p>Patricia Edgar brilliantly portrays the challenges and, more importantly, the manifold joys of growing older. She dissects the biased and inaccurate attitudes which prevent society from gaining maximum value out of its senior citizens. She highlights the experience, perspective, integrity and wisdom of our elders and introduces us to eight individuals enjoying fulfilling lives towards the end of their journeys - independent, interesting and inspirational people, examples to be emulated. This book is a must read for every thinking Australian.
