1.
Life-Span Extension:
Single-Cell Organisms to Man (Aging Medicine)

by Christian Sell, Antonello Lorenzini, and Holly M. Brown-Borg (Hardcover - Aug 25, 2009)
http://tinyurl.com/yz3fpzq



Book description:
In recent years, remarkable discoveries have been made concerning the underlying mechanisms of aging. In Life-Span Extension: Single-Cell Organisms to Man, the editors bring together a range of illuminating perspectives from researchers investigating the aging process in a variety of species. This novel work addresses the aging process in species ranging from yeast to man and, among other subjects, features detailed discussions of the naked mole-rat, an exceptionally long-lived rodent; the relationship between dietary factors/food restriction and aging; and an evolutionary view of the human aging process.

Single mutations that extend life span have been identified in yeast, worms, flies, and mice, whereas studies in humans have identified potentially important markers for successful aging. At the same time, it has been discovered that the genes and pathways identified in these studies involve a surprisingly small set of conserved functions, most of which have been the focus of aging research for some time. For example, the mTOR pathway, a regulator of translation and protein synthesis, has been identified as a common longevity pathway in yeast and Caenorhabditis elegans. In mammals, this pathway intersects with neuroendocrine pathways and with the insulin/insulin-like growth factor pathways, which have been identified as major modulators of life span and aging in both invertebrates and mice.

Novel, emerging technologies and the increasingly wide variety of systems that are now used to study aging and the mechanisms of aging provide enormous opportunities for the identification of common pathways that modulate longevity. It is these common pathways that are the focus of this important volume.

The Future of Aging: Pathways to Human Life Extension

-- 'Health Studies' blog



Greetings,

Here is a new upcoming book for discussion (click on the book title below for more detail):

The Future of Aging: Pathways to Human Life ExtensionEditor-in-chief: Dr. Gregory M. Fahy
Springer, May 4, 2010
Approx. 500 p., Hardcover
ISBN: 978-90-481-3998-9
http://tinyurl.com/yf9urbv



This new book (about 500 pages) is written by a team of 40 experts.

Book Description provided by the Publisher (Springer):

Just as the health costs of aging threaten to bankrupt developed countries, this book makes the scientific case that a biological "bailout" could be on the way, and that human aging can be different in the future than it is today.

Here 40 authors argue how our improving understanding of the biology of aging and selected technologies should enable the successful use of many different and complementary methods for ameliorating aging, and why such interventions are appropriate based on our current historical, anthropological, philosophical, ethical, evolutionary, and biological context.

Challenging concepts are presented together with in-depth reviews and paradigm-breaking proposals that collectively illustrate the potential for changing aging as never before. The proposals extend from today to a future many decades from now in which the control of aging may become effectively complete.

Examples include sirtuin-modulating pills, new concepts for attacking cardiovascular disease and cancer, mitochondrial rejuvenation, stem cell therapies and regeneration, tissue reconstruction, telomere maintenance, prevention of immunosenescence, extracellular rejuvenation, artificial DNA repair, and full deployment of nanotechnology.

The Future of Aging will make you think about aging differently and is a challenge to all of us to open our eyes to the future therapeutic potential of biogerontology.

Written for:

Biogerontologists and physicians and politicians concerned with issues associated with aging; educated laypeople trying to see the future direction of aging as it may pertain to their own lives; potential use as a teaching tool in graduate level courses about the biology of aging; biomedical research and university libraries that maintain collections related to gerontology.

Greetings,

Here is a new book for discussion here (click on the book title below for more detail):

International Handbook of Population Aging
by Peter Uhlenberg (Editor), Ph.D.
Springer, 2009
http://tinyurl.com/mc4tql


This encyclopedic book (772 pages) is written by international team of 61 experts.

Book Description provided by the Publisher (Springer):

The International Handbook of Population Aging is the first comprehensive volume to examine research on a wide array of the profound implications of population aging. Global population aging is one of the most important issues facing human societies in the early twenty-first century.

Population projections show that the proportion of the world’s population over age 60 will double between 2000 and 2050, and that about one-third of the people living in developed countries will be over age 60 in 2050. Already there are countries in Europe and Asia where the number of people over age 60 exceed the number of children, and by 2050 some of these countries will have twice as many old people as children.

As noted by the 2002 UN World Assembly on Ageing Report, this global trend in population aging is unprecedented in human history, is pervasive across societies, is enduring (there is no going back to younger populations), and has profound implications for human beings.

Written for gerontologists, demographers, sociologists and social scientists, researchers and teachers.

Inheritance in Contemporary America: The Social Dimensions of Giving across Generations (New Book)

Greetings,

Here is a new book for discussion here:

Inheritance in Contemporary America:
The Social Dimensions of Giving across Generations

by Jacqueline L. Angel (Hardcover - Jan 4, 2008)

Book Description provided by the Publisher
(The Johns Hopkins University Press):


With the baby boom generation on the cusp of retirement, life expectancies on the rise, and the nation's cultural makeup in flux, the United States is faced with social and policy quandaries that demand attention. How are elders to balance the competing claims of helping family members during their lifetime, saving for old age, and planning estates? What roles should the state, family, and individuals play in supporting people during later life? Are new familial gift-giving trends sustainable, and, if so, what effects might they have on future generations?

Inheritance in Contemporary America tackles the complex legal, policy, and emotional issues that surround bequests and inheritances in an era of increasing longevity, broadening ethnicity, and unraveling social safety nets. Through empirical analyses, case studies, interviews, and anecdotes, Jacqueline L. Angel explains the historical nature of familial giving and how it is changing as the nation's demographics shift. She explores the legal, personal, and policy complexities involved in passing wealth down through generations and provides a cross-disciplinary context for exploring the indelible effects that newly unfolding inheritance practices will have on various societal cohorts and the nation in general.

From nuclear and extended families to the state and nongovernmental bodies, Angel's engaging study explores how attitudes toward giving are evolving and confronts in stark terms the legacy that these shifts in attitude will leave. This book will be a vital tool for scholars and practitioners in gerontology, sociology, psychology, anthropology, economics, political science, and public policy.

Key words:
New books, Inheritance, America, Giving across Generations, Jacqueline Angel, Johns Hopkins University, baby boom generation, retirement, life expectancy, gerontology, sociology, psychology, anthropology, economics, political science, public policy.

The Age of Miracles: Embracing the New Midlife -- New Book

Greetings,

Here is a new book for possible discussion here (no endorsement implied):

The Age of Miracles:
Embracing the New Midlife

by Marianne Williamson (Hardcover - Jan 1, 2008)


Book Description provided by the Publisher (Hay House):

The need for change as we get older­an emotional pressure for one phase of our lives to transition into another­is a human phenomenon, neither male nor female. There simply comes a time in our lives­not fundamentally different from the way puberty separates childhood from adulthood­when it’s time for one part of ourselves to die and for something new to be born.

The purpose of this book by best-selling author and lecturer Marianne Williamson is to psychologically and spiritually reframe this transition so that it leads to a wonderful sense of joy and awakening.

In our ability to rethink our lives lies our greatest power to change them. What we have called “middle age” need not be seen as a turning point toward death. It can be viewed as a magical turning point toward life as we’ve never known it, if we allow ourselves the power of an independent imagination­thought-forms that don’t flow in a perfunctory manner from ancient assumptions merely handed down to us, but rather flower into new archetypal images of a humanity just getting started at 45 or 50.

What we’ve learned by that time, from both our failures as well as our successes, tends to have humbled us into purity. When we were young, we had energy but we were clueless about what to do with it. Today, we have less energy, perhaps, but we have far more understanding of what each breath of life is for. And now at last, we have a destiny to fulfill­not a destiny of a life that’s simply over, but rather a destiny of a life that is finally truly lived.

Midlife is not a crisis; it’s a time of rebirth. It’s not a time to accept your death; it’s a time to accept your life­and to finally, truly live it, as you and you alone know deep in your heart it was meant to be lived.

About the Author
Marianne Williamson is a bestselling author who has gained national prominence through her popular lectures based on A Course in Miracles. She is the author of several bestsellers.

The Caregiver: A Life With Alzheimer's -- New Book

See also:
-- 'Longevity Science' blog
-- 'Health Studies' blog



Greetings,

Here is a new book for discussion:

The Caregiver: A Life With Alzheimer's
(The Culture and Politics of Health Care Work)

by Aaron Alterra and Arthur Kleinman (Paperback - Jan 2008)


Book Description provided by the Publisher ( ILR Press):

Aaron and Stella Alterra had been married for more than sixty years when Aaron began to notice puzzling lapses in his wife's memory. Innocuous at first, they became more severe and more alarming. After a series of appointments and tests, the Alterras were informed that Stella was one of the more than 4.5 million Americans with Alzheimer's disease. Combining medical research on the disease and often-painful anecdotes of memory loss, deteriorating motor functions, personality shifts, support-group and daycare experiences, and drug trials, Alterra chronicles his transformation from husband to caregiver after his wife's diagnosis. More than a chronology of one family's experience of Alzheimer's disease, The Caregiver is an intelligent, beautifully reflective testimony to how family members turned caregivers become the ultimate advocates for their loved ones in the face of a disease with no cure.

From the Back Cover
"A touchingly exact and superbly composed account written by a real writer. This is the best and most expert book on Alzheimer's that I have read and it should be closely studied by every caregiver."--John Bayley, author of Iris: A Memoir of Iris Murdoch

"The Caregiver is one of the few examples of the lived experience of Alzheimer's disease from the perspective of a loving, reflective, and articulate husband. Aaron Alterra paints a beautiful and honest picture of how Alzheimer's disease changed one family's world, a literate world full of life, music, art, and words. His story will touch physicians, nurses, social workers, physical therapists, psychologists, and healers of all sorts who struggle to assist families in their journey with this disease."--Patricia G. Archbold, Building Academic Geriatric Nursing Capacity Scholars Program, American Academy of Nursing

About the Authors
Aaron Alterra is a pseudonym for E. S. Goldman, an award-winning fiction writer who publishes frequently in the Atlantic; he has published a novel and two volumes of short stories and lives on Cape Cod. Arthur Kleinman is Esther and Sidney Rabb Professor of Anthropology, Professor of Medical Anthropology, Professor of Psychiatry, and Curator of Medical Anthropology in the Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology at Harvard University. His books include Patients and Healers in the Context of Culture and The Illness Narratives.

Greetings,

Here is a new book for discussion:

Textbook of Men's Health and Aging, Second Edition
by Bruno Lunenfeld, Louis J.G. Gooren, Alvaro Morales, and John E. Morley (Hardcover - Dec 26, 2007)


Book Description provided by the Publisher (Informa Healthcare) :

The First Edition did much to establish and define the scope of the emerging subspecialty of aging men's health. The central mission of the new edition is to unpick normal physiologic aging in men from pathologic processes. We plan to eschew any material that is routinely available in the standard textbooks of medicine and geriatrics and maintain a unique male perspective. Wherever possible, the book will record consensus on diagnostic criteria, emphasize evidence-based medicine, and highlight translational science, i.e. the demonstration of how knowledge of the molecular and physiological processes can inform and lead clinical practice. There will be increased advice on treatment options. There will be two new sections: Basic Sciences and Sexual Dysfunction.
