More about the book
The book explores the societal perspective on aging, highlighting how contemporary culture values youth and productivity, often sidelining the elderly. It argues that this marginalization not only harms older individuals but also deprives younger generations of valuable lessons about aging and mortality, particularly from a Christian viewpoint. Through this lens, the work advocates for a deeper appreciation of the elderly and the wisdom they can impart about life and death.
