If you’re feeling even slightly down about getting older, The Ten Steps of Positive Ageing is the antidote. Full of detailed and ‘do-able’ advice, Guy Robertson’s book gives you more control over your ageing than you ever imagine you could have. This book turns the myth of ageing as decline completely on its head and shows us how to choose a positive and fulfilled later life. The Ten Steps of Positive Ageing is literally life-changing! -- Louise Ansari The Centre for Ageing Better
Our ageing and our longer lives are too often seen as problems rather than opportunities. It is good to have a book that makes the ‘case for the defence’. In his new book The Ten Steps of Positive Ageing, Guy Robertson sets out a balanced view of the plusses and minuses of ageing. -- Baron Filkin (CBE) former Chair of the Centre for Ageing Better
