| Annotation | The author reflects on results of a simple survey of 100 contacts aged 60-95, in which he sought their views on wisdom or being wiser at age 20 or 40, and the age they felt competent to advise younger people. He also comments on results of studies by major writers in the field of gerontology on mental impairment and the likelihood of being diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease (AD). (RH). |
