Shock of Gray: The Aging of the World's Population and How It Pits Young Against Old, Child Against Parent, Worker Against Boss Audiobook (Unabridged)

" Interesting book, but a real downer. "

" Very interesting facts and examples, but could be about half the length and the message and information would still of gotten across. "

" Fascinating look at aging demographics around the world and potential impact on economics, culture and more. "

" Excellent!, using the examples of Spain, Sarasota, Fla., Yokyo, and Rockford, Ill. weaves a suggestive map of forces being unleashed in USA and globally. Readable prose, and good storytelling make for a book worth re-reading. "

" Hard to pick out a coherent theme. "

" If you are curious about the future, on the macro and microlevel, you need to read this book. "

" A great look into the aging population of the world and how it impacts globalization and country economics. I found it informative and it has broadened my perspective on the world. A great read for anyone looking to dive into the subject of globalization and world population statistics. "

" This was very long and informative, and the main solutions that I took away were: 1) have a lot of children to care for elders, or 2) Educate your children so that the family can store up wealth to care for elders. "

" This was more academic than I had hoped, but significant to read just the same. The impact of the aging of the boomer generation is huge. "

" Excellent journalism and structured story. I wold love to see more science in there. "

" A brilliant book on the implications (positive and negative) of an aging population. "

" Interesting book, but a real downer. "

" Excellent!, using the examples of Spain, Sarasota, Fla., Yokyo, and Rockford, Ill. weaves a suggestive map of forces being unleashed in USA and globally. Readable prose, and good storytelling make for a book worth re-reading. "
