Critics Review
Enormously enjoyable, entertaining and full of important information. Jane Gordon writes with verve about her quest to overcome the parts of ageing we all dread, and the result is a warm, funny and fascinating look at the latest thinking on how we women can stay happy, healthy and sane as we approach the autumn/winter of our lives. A real treat. * Judy Finnigan *Crammed with wonderful ideas, this is the perfect book for anyone with health, strength, a sense of adventure and no intention of feeling old. * Dame Esther Rantzen *A jolly quest to make the greying years more colourful – Libby Purves * TIMES *Ultimately, this is a positive and life-affirming handbook with good ‘takeaways’ for those wanting to ensure they get more out of life as they age. And it confirms what I’ve long believed: people need projects. * DAILY MAIL *Witty and wise, inspiring and insightful, How Not To Get Old is a must-read * Fern Britton *
