Brain and Longevity
ISBN: 9783642639487 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 179 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. In this third volume on longevity Fondation Ipsen has again collected the most recent results in research on genes and diet in the evolution of human longevity, educational level and longevity, cognitive impairment and survival at older age and other contributions. The preponderance of relatively short - compared to long-lived organisms suggests that morphogenesis is easier to accomplish than is maintenace of soma, whereas the broad range of longevities of organisms demonstrates that maintaining soma for extended periods of time is possible. The underlying assumption of "disposable soma"...

On the Occasion of the Other
ISBN: 9780939266715 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Only a few teachers, thinkers, and writers among Gestalt therapists have succeeded in extending its beautiful groundbreaking theory and practice which originally appeared in Perls, Hefferline & Goodman's Gestalt Therapy which published in 1951. Among this small group Jean-Marie Robine, who lives in Bordeaux, France, stands out as one of the most inventive and important figures on the current scene. Robine's special gift as a theorist is a sensibility that moves with ease from the philosopher's absorption in the task of fine-tuning concepts to the clinician's fascination with the nuances of...

The Paradoxes of Longevity
ISBN: 9783642642586 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 137 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. An ever greater number of our contemporaries will reach a very much greater age than their ancestors. Longevity is one of the most fertile fields for paradoxes: it is clear that the same causes do not produce the same effects at the age of ten and at the age of one hundred! On the subject of longevity, the "recipe book" is far from having been written. Nevertheless, the Fondation IPSEN has chosen a few of these paradoxes to discuss and try and explain them.

Longevity: To the Limits and Beyond
ISBN: 9783642645662 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Why longevity? For a number of years, the Fondation IPSEN has been devoting considerable effort to the various aspects of ageing, not only to age-related diseases such as Alzheimer's, but also to the Centenarians, the paragon of positive ageing. The logical continuation of this approach is to address the question of longevity in global terms. Behind the extreme values, what span is accessible to all of us and likely to directly concern most of our contemporaries? The individual and col lective increase in the duration of life is one of the most striking phenomena of our time. It could be one...

Human Longevity, Individual Life Duration, and the Growth of the Oldest-Old Population
ISBN: 9781402048463 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 442 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Old-age survival has considerably improved in the second half of the twentieth century. Life expectancy in wealthy countries has increased, on average, from 65 years in 1950 to 76 years in 2005. The rise was more spectacular in some countries: the life expectancy for Japanese women rose from 62 years to 86 years during the same period. Driven by this longevity extension, the population aged 80 and over in those countries has grown fivefold from 8.5 million in 1950 to 44.5 million in 2005. Why has such a substantial extension of human lifespan occurred? How long can we live? In this book,... Old-age survival has considerably improved in the second half of the twentieth century.

Supercentenarians
ISBN: 9783642115196 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 323 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Does human mortality after age 110 continue to rise, level off, or start to decline? This book describes a concerted, international research effort undertaken with the goal of establishing a database that allows the best possible description of the mortality trajectory beyond the age of 110. The International Database on Longevity (IDL) is the result of this ongoing effort. The IDL contains exhaustive information on validated cases of supercentenarians (people 110 years and older) and allows unbiased estimates of mortality after age 110. The main finding is remarkable: human mortality after...
