Title: Aging of the Genome
Description: Aging has long been ascribed to the gradual accumulation of mutations in the genome. However, it is only recently that the technology has been developed to test this theory and its consequences. This book reviews the concept of genomic instability as a possible universal cause of aging in complex organisms.
