Description: This inspiring collection of reflections is written by 24 people, all aged eighty years or older and living in the Blue Mountains of New South Wales. They seek to foster constructive conversation about ageing and how to grow old well.

These reflections are authentic and courageous in opening topics that are sometimes hard to speak of publicly. They include sources of meaning, faith and spirituality, creativity, social engagement as well as grief, loss, dying and death. The reflections embrace examples of the wonderful ways in which individuals can overcome the hard things of life, leading to a new way of being.

The contributors to The Wisdom of Age are pioneers in gerontology, telling the world what it is really like to continue to live well into later life.
