I am 74 and in better shape than when I was 50."—Jack S. Dr. Announcing the paperback edition of Younger Next Year, the New York Times, USA Today, Wall Street Journal, and Publishers Weekly bestseller, co-written by one of the country’s most prominent internists, Dr. The key to the program is found in Harry's Rules: Exercise six days a week.

It can bring a feeling of isolation and lack of significance. Maybe a feeling of being adrift with no horizon in sight. It's kind of like "why get up in the morning?" Aches and pains, mood swings, depression. Frank Haseley said I purchased the book because of a newspaper article recommending. I purchased the book because of a newspaper article recommending it, especially the stretches and exercises that were supposed to be in the appendices. The book I received did not have them. I must have been sold a previous or outdated edition. Quite disapointing!
