Never Say Die by Susan Jacoby

I have ordered the book,"Never Say Die" by Susan Jacoby, and really look forward to reading it.

There is an excerpt from the book in the New York Times.

There is a considerable amount of truth in the assertion that many old people today — if they are in sound financial shape, if they are in reasonably good health, and if they possess functioning brains — can explore an array of possibilities that did not exist even a generation ago. “If ” is the most important word in the preceding sentence.

I really like her style of writing and what she is saying. Dick Stroud
