Counterclock-wise

Scientists have been looking for a cure for old age for not the first hundred years, but so far, it seems, have not found anything. Does this mean that it does not exist? Or maybe they are simply not looking for? In his book, biologist and scientific journalist Polina Loseva acts as a lawyer of modern science of aging and talks about what gerontologists are doing today and how to correctly interpret the results they get. Who is to blame for the fact that we are aging? What can become our protection from old age: telomerase or antioxidants, hormones or diets? Biologists have not yet come to a single answer to these questions, and the reader, if he decides to move from thought to action, will have to make his own choice. This book will become a guide to modern theories of aging not only for biologists, but also for everyone who is interested in how to help their body conduct an unequal struggle over time
