Whenever Ramon Bayés gets on the subway or the bus, the younger passengers jump from their place and with an altruistic gesture offer him their seat. It is inevitable: the author is about to turn eighty-five, an age that may seem old in the eyes of others...

But aging is not a subject that keeps Ramon Bayés awake at night. Sometimes he must strive to be fully aware of his age. How does he do it? Is there any formula? Is the true nature of aging given by the numbers we add? The author seems to have found a happy answer: if we manage to be autonomous and always keep curiosity alive there is no reason why not waking up every morning singing the triumphant cry of Tarzan.

Forget your age is the result of the reflections of a young, vital and, above all, curious spirit. It is also the path of a generous and erudite mind, capable of sharply analyse different topics, who knows what it means to age well, to retire, to face problems, while still living here and now.
