The storied realms of exceptional longevity are scrutinised in this
volume. The vast majority of reputed centenarians in the past, and
most countries even today, lived less than 100 years. On the other
hand, the number of genuine long-livers is exploding and a
substantial proportion of current new-borns in developed countries
may survive to celebrate their 100th birthday. Extremely few of our
grandparents endured a century but centenarians may be commonplace
among our grandchildren. This volume explains and documents these
assertions, with research that melds judicious scepticism and
painstaking scholarship with intellectual excitement about the
advancing frontier of survival.
