Ending Aging The Rejuvenation Biotechnologies That Could Reverse Human Aging in Our Lifetime

People alive today could live to be a thousand years old "His clarion call to action is the message neither of a madman nor a bad man, but of a brilliant, beneficent man of goodwill, who wants only for civilization to fulfill the highest hopes he has for its future." --Dr. Sherwin Nuland, clinical professor of surgery at Yale University School of Medicine and author of "How We Die" and "The Art of Aging" "Seems to me this man could be put in jail with reasonable cause." --Dr. Martin Raff, emeritus professor of biology at University College London and coauthor of "Molecular Biology of the Cell" A leading researcher sketches the real "fountain of youth" - The most realistic way to combat aging is to rejuvenate the body at the molecular and cellular level, removing accumulated damage and restoring us to a biologically younger state. - Comprehensive rejuvenation therapies can feasibly postpone age-related frailty and disease indefinitely, greatly extending our lives while eliminating, rather than lengthening, the period of late-life frailty and debilitation. - A comprehensive panel of rejuvenation therapies could probably be validated in laboratory mice within a decade. We would then have a good chance of developing it for human use only a decade or two thereafter. - Removing the causes of aging-related deaths will also eliminate all thesuffering that aging inflicts on most people in the last years of their lives. - Aging kills 100,000 people a day: old people, yes, but old people are people too. Social concerns about the effects of defeating aging are legitimate but don't outweigh the merits of saving so many lives and alleviating so much suffering.de Grey, Aubrey is the author of 'Ending Aging The Rejuvenation Biotechnologies That Could Reverse Human Aging in Our Lifetime', published 2007 under ISBN 9780312367060 and ISBN 0312367066.
