WISDOM by Andrew Zuckerman (photography hero) was on the top of my Christmas wishlist - and it arrived early (via my wonderful husband)
It is a collection of the most awesome portraits and comments about wisdom from some of the finest people of a generation - to be featured in the book you had to be over 65. Once I saw it included not only the obvious - Nelson Mandela but also some personal heroes - Terrence Conran, Judi Dench, Richard Rogers, I knew i had to have it. Reading this book not only inspires me, but makes me feel good about getting older. And those of you who know me well know that Helvetica makes me grin! (It's beautifully designed like all of Zuckerman's stuff)

If I could I would buy a copy of this for EVERYONE I know.
