Aging is a group-selected adaptationtheory, evidence, and medical implications /[electronic resource] :by Joshua Mitteldorf. - 1st ed. - Boca Raton, FL :CRC Press,c2017. - 1 online resource (243 p.) :ill.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

Although books exist on the evolution of aging, this is the first book written from the perspective of again as an adaptive program. It offers an insight into the implications of research on aging genetics, The author proposes the Demographic Theory of Senescence, whereby aging has been affirmatively selected because it levels the death rate over time helping stabilize population dynamics and prevent extinctions.
