The author presents case accounts about disorders that open windows on to the ageing process. The impacts of ageing on the brain and nervous system are given special attention, as are the effects of caloric restriction on maximum lifespan. 606 $aCells$xAging 606 $aApoptosis 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCells$xAging. 615 0$aApoptosis. 676 $a612.6/7 700 $aClark$b William R.$f1938-$0262163 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450265403321 996 $aA means to an end$92154661 997 $aUNINA
