This book provides the reader with a broad overview of the biology of aging, and offers a critical analysis of past, present and possible future anti-aging interventions. It begins by evaluating the state of research on aging and anti-aging interventions on the basis of scientific merit and underlying biology, before discussing the shortcomings and drawbacks of existing strategies that sometimes preclude meaningful developments. The volume differs from many existing studies in its more balanced and realistic analysis of current developments in the field of aging.
Essays by clinicians, parents, and de-transitioners demonstrate how ‘transgender children’ are invented in medical, social, and political contexts. The authors reveal the harms of transgender ideology and show how adults can intervene to protect young people.
