Protiv chasovoy strelki: CHto takoe starenie i kak s nim borot'sya
Polina Loseva
Scientists have been looking for a cure for old age for more than a hundred years, but so far, it seems, they have not found anything. Does this mean it doesn't exist? Or maybe they're just looking in the wrong place? In her book, biologist and science journalist Polina Loseva acts as an advocate for the modern science of aging and talks about what gerontologists are doing today and how to correctly interpret their results. Who is to blame for our aging? What can be our protection against old age: telomerase or antioxidants, hormones or diets? Biologists have not yet come to a unified answer to these questions, and the reader, if he decides to move from reflection to action, will have to make his own choice. This book will be a guide to modern theories of aging, not only for biologists, but for anyone who is interested in how to help your body fight against time.
