Aging with Grace: The Nun Study and the Science of Old Age. How We Can All Live Longer, Healthier and More Vital Lives.

By (author) David Snowdon






| book description |

AGING WITH GRACE reveals the cutting-edge research that has transformed scientists' understanding of healthy aging and shows what everyone can do to help prevent Alzheimer's disease. This remarkable book combines cutting-edge research on the brain with the poignant and inspiring stories of a group of nuns - extraordinary women - who are teaching scientists about how we can grow old well. Aging With Grace shows that old age does not have to mean an inevitable slide into illness and disability; rather, it can be a time of promise and productivity, intellectual vigour, and continuing freedom from disease.
