The Determination of a Lifespan
The average human lifespan was around 35 years in 1950 and is now 72 years, but is still much less than the longest record of 122 years. Likewise, the present human lifespan differs as much as 30 years across the world. These differences are due to many factors such as meals, obesity, and diseases. This book clarifies these factors and suggests means for the general population to live longer. Related to this, it also reports the status of centenarians in the world and animal experiments. It provides a survey of lifespan records of animals and plants and related factors, especially genes. The results indicate that there are both plants and animals living for 10, 000 years or longer, which will be interesting to researchers and students.
The Biochemistry of Gene Expression in Higher Organisms
The papers assembled in this volume are based on the symposium on "The Biochemistry of Gene Expression in Higher Organisms" which was held at the University of Sydney from May 14-19, 1972. Many symposia have been held on the control of gene expression in prokaryotes but to date considerably less attention has been paid to eukaryotic organisms. It has been appreciated only recently that some of the information gained from the study of prokaryotes is directly applicable to eukaryotes; however, it is now realized that the principles of the control mechanisms of gene expression in these two classes of organism, differ considerably. This symposium was organized in an effort to bring together work...
