Praise for Dr. Marc B Cooper and From Older to Elder

“We live in a time of few ... voices unafraid to be both old and wise. We need the
wisdom of elders—especially those who grew up before the digital great tsunami
and who can guide us toward a world that is at least halfway human. Dr. Marc
Cooper is one of those voices.”

— Charles Jennings —
author of Rise of the Lightspeed Learners and The Hundredth Widow

“Marc Cooper’s From Older to Elder is a manifesto for a different vision of aging in
which our opportunities and contributions are virtually unlimited. ... The experience
and wisdom we’ve accrued is an asset in demand more than ever in today’s world.”

— Jim Selman —
founder of The Eldering Institute and
author of Living in a Real-Time World

“Today, many of us are attempting to make a transformation from lives of doing
and achieving to lives of being and giving. From Older to Elder provides us with a
language and context large enough to ... embody the transformation from an older
person to a “contemporary elder”... I see this fine book as my owner’s manual for the
next life stage!”
