Maturity by Osho
In a culture infatuated with youth and determined to avoid old age at all costs, this book dares to raise a question that has been all but forgotten in the age of Viagra and cosmetic surgery. What benefits might lie in accepting the ageing process as natural, rather than trying to hold on to youth and its pleasures all the way to the grave?
Here, Osho outlines the ten major growth cycles in human life, from the self-centred universe of the pre-schooler to the flowering of wisdom and compassion in old age. Osho's humour runs like a red thread through the book, with a profound understanding of how easy it is to be distracted from the deeper meaning and purpose of our lives, and what it means to grow up, rather than just grow old.

A funny, wise guide to growing old ... and loving it! Joan Sauers has come up with more than 300 indispensable tips for women who are 35 and over. The list includes reminders to do all the FUN stuff, from drinking champagne to climbing a tree (though not in that order!) and, equally important, reminders not to do the dumb stuff, like sleep with your sister's husband. The book is light, bright and fun, and it comes in a cute gift format that's perfect for A Woman of a Certain Age to flip through with one hand while holding her cocktail in the other. Of course it's also the perfect size for flipping through while you're juggling a toddler, two grocery bags and the car keys, but, in the spirit of Joan Sauers, let's enjoy the fantasy, shall we?
