Summary:
"From the creator of the best-selling The Jewish Catalog comes Getting Good at Getting Older, a tour for all of us "of a certain age" through the resources and skills we need to navigate the years between maturity and old age. It brings humor, warmth, and 4,000 years of Jewish experience to the question of how to shape this new stage of life."--From publisher.
