    Radica Pocket Poker has been my fav since it came out (yep, I'm vintage-aged) and now and then I lose one, give it to a youngster never seen one before or heaven forbid I run into a dud. (Had one with no returns policy; lesson learned.) Not the case with Winston Books, they accept returns but it wasn't necessary for my item which was shipped fast, packaged safely and exactly as described, like brand new. Great price too, I know because this is a repeat product. I recommend seller.

    Everyone over the age of 30 needs to read this book. An ounce of early prevention can keep you out of the asylum when you age and suffer from dementia. Dr. Gupta is an exceptional writer, Well written with personal insights. All all about how our brains work and what we need to do to keep them working into old age, and what not to do.
