ABOUT THE BOOKYouthful aging is the new paradigm. Be inspired by 13 true stories of youthful agers who made their mature years the best time of their life. Find out their secrets of getting the body back in shape, sharpening the mind, and boosting the creative juices.ABOUT THE DESIGNThe required dimensions of the cover are: 2813 x 4500 pixels.The imagery should be upbeat and make the viewer feel optimistic and confident about their ability to reverse the aging process and be inspired to think that retirement age is a door to a whole new, exciting and productive life.It’s important that the book ‘pops off the shelf” and catches the eye. The most important aspect for us is “does it sell”, not “does it look pretty”. So it’s very important that is catches the eye, is very polished, and very engaging and interesting.
