«Das Rätsel des Alterns» is Walter Theimer's popular science essay on ageing, in hardback and in German.
Walter Theimer explains the changes that the passage of time causes in people and animals, and critically examines the main theories that have tried to explain them: from biological and hormonal hypotheses to the approaches of geriatrics and gerontology. He shows how science investigates age and which questions remain open.
1984 edition. The cover shows the silhouette of a human figure on a staircase in beige and orange tones.
For readers interested in health, wellness, geriatrics, gerontology and the biology of ageing.
