The front matter states that Shetter is a member of Bloomington Monthly Meeting (OVYM), which leads me to speculate that he is the author of numerous books on the Netherlands: its history and its language, and that he is a past professor at Indiana University.
I was disappointed in this pamphlet. It is wholly composed of thoughts (I won't say "random" since he has put them into a semblance of order) on his experience of aging. With a bit more work (and an editor?) I think it could have been woven into a powerful essay on "aging well" to stand next to Morrison's pamphlets and books.
Perhaps Shetter will take another stab at writing for us at ninety. I am interested to hear, even if it is only thoughts!… (more)

This is a very pleasant collection of the thoughts and questions of a long-time friend on several topics related to aging and spiritual maturity. There is wisdom and insight here, as well as acute observation and conclusion. You can read a chunk of this at a time; this could be good bed-time reading.
