David Stipp discusses his new book on the scientific and medical discoveries that will lead to greater longevity with good health. The author is critical of bogus remedies and promises of extended youth. He emphasizes instead the promising research, especially in genetics, that suggests the possibility of extending life without the decline in health and mental acuity. This lecture is a valuable resource in our era of aging populations.
