A new cultural war for the 21st Century,

This review is from: Aged by Culture (Paperback)
Gullete's observation that "We are aged more by culture than by chromosomes" piqued my curiosity enough to buy the book...and then WOW! When I started to read it I couldn't put it down. It is scholarly,informative and clearly articulates the reality and pernicious nature of what our culture does to "aging"....and what we do to ourselves by buying into this cultural ideology. This is not a book for whiners or the feint of heart as Gullette gives us ample material and rational for challenging and changing the way we all view aging...which we can do and absolutely must do. I'm starting with a positive attitude right now! I recommend it for anyone who intends to remain a productive member of society in all stages of their life.
