520 The Handbook of the Biology of Aging, Sixth Edition,
provides a comprehensive overview of the latest research
findings in the biology of aging. Intended as a summary
for researchers, it is also adopted as a high level
textbook for graduate and upper level undergraduate
courses. The Sixth Edition is 20% larger than the Fifth
Edition, with 21 chapters summarizing the latest findings
in research on the biology of aging. The content of the
work is virtually 100% new. Though a selected few topics
are similar to the Fifth Edition, these chapters are
authored by new contributors with new information. The
majority of the chapters are completely new in both
content and authorship. The Sixth Edition places greater
emphasis and coverage on competing and complementary
theories of aging, broadening the discussion of conceptual
issues. Greater coverage of techniques used to study
biological issues of aging include computer modeling, gene
profiling, and demographic analyses. Coverage of research
on Drosophilia is expanded from one chapter to four. New
chapters on mammalian models discuss aging in relation to
skeletal muscles, body fat and carbohydrate metabolism,
growth hormone, and the human female reproductive system.
Additional new chapters summarize exciting research on
stem cells and cancer, dietary restriction, and whether
age related diseases are an integral part of aging. The
Handbook of the Biology of Aging, Sixth Edition is part of
the Handbooks on Aging series, including Handbook of the
Psychology of Aging and Handbook of Aging and the Social
Sciences, also in their 6th editions.
