Ageless Quest is a personal, sometimes controversial, account of the pursuit of a genetic cure for aging by an expert in the field. Aging has always been regarded as a highly complex process with many degenerative changes leading to the cessation of life. But recent research has identified a relatively simple mechanism that governs the pace of aging. Lenny Guarente's Ageless Quest is a scientific detective story for the baby boom generation. It offers an insider's view of an area of potentially astonishing high reward - and equally high risk.
