All you Boomers who are still bummed out about getting that AARP card should slip a little vodka in your prune juice and pop this one in the VCR. According to 83-year-old Fred Smith, "If you manage aging there can be some real rewards. If it manages you, you're in trouble." He recommends that you start preparing for old age early on and he offers some practical tips which are good rules for living at any stage of life: develop mental discipline, maintain the integrity of your core (health, wealth, relationships), take charge of your emotions, etc. Growing Older Gracefully offers solid advice, with a mild Christian slant, which provides a sense of empowerment for those in the throes of middle aged angst. A worthwhile purchase for this group. Aud: P. (J. Reed)
