Includes bibliographical references and index. Section one. The history of antiaging from myth to modern science : a chronological history of an idea: Myth, magic, and folklore : immortality in the eras before science ; Changes in religious faith and the rise of anti-aging science ; Enlightened aging ; Anti-aging in the industrial age ; Anti-aging in the twenty-first century : from theory to practice -- section two. Modern paths to the fountain of youth : a topical approach to the practice of antiaging: What is life, that we may extend it? ; What is death, that we might delay it? ; What makes us look younger? ; What makes us feel younger? ; What kills us (and how can we escape)? ; What can we do now to extend our life without a prescription? ; What can we do now to extend our life with a prescription and future technology? -- section three. Views from the experts : an anthology of views on the implications of a successful antiaging movement from a spectrum of disciplines: Question : can science really develop a fountain of youth? ; Question : does youthfulness breed recklessness? ; Question : Will the benefits of very long life spans outweigh the social costs? ; Question : How would a successful antiaging technology affect faith? This book addresses the history of movements to remain youthful, from ancient times through the modern era; past medical advances that extended the average lifespan; and our cultural obsession with "staying young." It covers basic principles of aging and anti-aging, as well as the science behind the methods, and examines controversial issues and debates related to life extension, such as global overpopulation, length of life vs. quality of life, and socioeconomic concerns.
