Synopsis

People never learn. They make the same mistakes generation after generation. So here are the things that everyone should learn about life, then hope to remember. With a wry sense of humour, Rules for Ageing presents the most realistic, practical, pleasurable and, most importantly, painless advice you will ever receive. This book offers timeless advice for anyone still young enough to learn, and richly amusing reflections on life for those who have seen it all before.

Wise, funny and insightful. I will happily carry Rules for Ageing into my sunset years and trust them to chart my course to geezerhood --Tom Brokaw

I like this book and am thinking it over. Especially rules 1,3,15- I wish I d known about that 15 years ago- and now 34, 'It's not about you' , that's worth the price of the book --Garrison Keiller

A hilarious guide to life, smart and to the point --People
