This monograph reviews the epidemiological, demographic, and
biological basis of population models of human mortality. These
investigations were motivated by the desire to better understand
the regularities of survival processes among adults -- especially
at extreme late ages where empirical data is currently limited. The
monograph discusses biological mechanisms, which shape the
age-patterns of mortality. The effects of an individual health
state, susceptibility to diseases and death, or physical frailty on
changes in late age survival are also investigated.
