I quote from this Jane Fonda’s book PRIME TIME, which is a paradigm-shifter for all………AGE-ism is not relevant anymore, (and never has been relevant,) because the times are changing so rapidly:
In terms of life expectancy, there has been a …….”jump of thirty-four years in just the last century….This may be one of the most dramatic changes in contemporary times, and we have barely begun to come to terms with what it means for us individually, for the future of our society, and for the planet. From a policy and cultural point of view, we are still functioning as if though this extension of life expectancy hasn’t happened.” (p.15.)
