Growing Old Gracefully 13 Sep 2006
Writer and broadcaster Joan Bakewell is now in her seventies and her new book 'The View from Here' considers the many perils of trying to grow old gracefully. Joan joins Jenni Murray along with the philosopher MM McCabe to talk about when is the right age to let yourself go - and how much your appearance as a woman is bound to your identity.

'The View from Here. Life at Seventy' is published by Atlantic Books, ISBN 1 84354 5144.
