"This book is proof that an encyclopedia can be interesting, comprehensive and intensely practical, without being enormous in size. Dr. Eyrich has marvelously given us everything we really need to know on the subject of aging from a biblical perspective. The evaluation forms included in the book can lend concrete assistance for those difficult decisions concerning loved ones. This is the most helpful book I've seen on the subject."
