Book Details
First Sentence
"America is becoming a "gerontocracy" and four outcomes are certain: 1. More of us will live longer than in any previous generation; 2. The epicenter of economic and political power will shift from the young to the old; 3. We will need to change our current mind set about how to spend our extra years of life; and 4. How we decide to behave as elders will, in all likelihood, become the most important challenge we will face in our lives."
