This book is meant for general reading by all readers. It contains very useful information on preventive health care, wellness measures, elder care and end of life issues. It is written in easy reading language. Those who reviewed the book felt it was very well written and recommended it as “must read book” for all, especially senior citizens. It describes topics such as how to live well, how to age gracefully, how to maintain good health, how to prepare oneself for the eventuality, and how to pass gracefully. All measures described are scientific methods, on how to undertake the journey of life well and end it nicely. Both birth and death are miracles and death is inevitable for all. All living beings want to live as long as possible and live well. Some of our life span is predetermined through the genetic code, which is “Nature”. However some of our life span is decided by our behaviour, life style, habits, and conduct, which is “Nurture”. While we cannot change nature, we certainly can improve our wellbeing and longevity through our “nurture”.
