Product Description
While exceptional human longevity has captured the imagination for millennia, it has only been in the last fifteen years or so that some of the secrets to extraordinarily long lives are finally giving way to scientific inquiry. This latest volume of the authoritative Annual Review of Gerontology and Geriatrics is not mean to be a comprehensive review of research on centenarians and the oldest old; rather, the editors and contributors have focused on selected extant issues in the biology, behavioral, and social sciences, as well as contemporary methodology. The contributors are top experts in their fields and the resulting collection is a state-of-the-art volume on our current understanding of this unique population.
