Aging of Cells in and Outside the Body edited by S. Kaul, Renu Wadwha.

This book provides updated knowledge on the basic features and mechanisms of cellular aging established since its first manifestation at cellular level 40 years ago. Contributions of genetic and environmental factors, failure of genetic and cellular repair mechanisms, and the epigenetic modification...
