Marc Agronin writes luminously of life as he sees it as a doctor. His beat? A nursing home in Miami. Drawing on moving personal experiences - those of his patients and their families, as well as his own - and on in-depth interviews with pioneers in the field, Agronin conjures an unforgettable look at what aging means today: how our bodies and brains change over time-and how even the very way we understand aging is changing too. Marc E. Agronin, MD , a graduate of Harvard University and Yale Medical School, is the psychiatrist at the Miami Jewish Health Systems. He lives in Cooper City, Florida. |
