The Science of Life Span and Aging

“Potatoes live longer than kings,' sighs ecologist Silvertown. . . in this whimsical book on aging. Aging is a complex topic, but the author mixes art, science, and humor to brew a highly readable concoction, presenting one aging theory after another.” —Publishers Weekly
