The Science of How and Why We Age


Aging and Its processes

by David Meyer

Science reporter Sue Armstrong discusses theories of aging and how medical science may slow the aging proces.

Sue Armstrong, author of p53: The Gene That Cracked the Cancer Code,​​​​​​ reported on the AIDS pandemic from Africa, Asia and the Caribbean. She has written for many publications, including Science.

Reviewers responded approvingly to her merging of science, biology and history. The Wall Street Journal said, “Ms Armstrong doesn’t pretend that there is any one answer to the question of why we age as we do. The science she presents is a grab bag of divergent theories, each championed by a scientific subspeciality.” The Sunday Times said of her book, “Complex, nuanced and cautious, yet it suggests we are on the brink of a revolution.”
