Ending Aging

Ending Aging explores the possibility of extending our productive, youthful lives by substantially slowing down the aging process. Aubrey de Grey believes that eliminating aging-derived debilitation and death entirely is within reach. In the book, he and his research assistant Michael Rae describe the details of this biotechnology and how it can be achieved by periodically repairing the accumulation of various types of damage in the human body. By demystifying aging, the authors systematically dismantle the fatalist presumption that aging will forever defeat the efforts of medical science.
