Why read it?
1 author picked At Peace as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I found this book to be totally unique as it is informed by the many many years Dr. Harrington spent in a hospital ER, taking care of patients.

From Star's list on helping you or your loved ones age successfully.
