“We read to know we are not alone” – C.S.Lewis

Aging can be quite a task to handle for the elderly. It puts strain on the fact they are not young anymore and be able to take life head on. The feeling that they are left to their own devices, the feeling of helplessness and the thought that such instances are only faced by them starts seeping in as they age. It is human nature to think we are solitary in facing problems while the fact remains no man is an island. Ageing and its multi-faceted issues demand a holistic and accessible communication tool that meets the needs of all sections of the community. Times like these calls for a sound reading

Dr V S Natarajan Geriatric Foundation undertakes publications that address the varied range of issues surround ageing – from everyday nutrition to palliative care. Dr V S Natarajan is a veteran practitioner of geriatric healthcare. As such books authored by our very own Father of Geriatrics, are outcomes of practical application and everyday experiences rather than theoretical concepts.

The books are reader friendly with simple language, provides solutions that is applicable to anyone who reads it and covers a wide range of topics such as nutrition, social and psychological issues of ageing, spirituality and mind body balance.
