The future of aging.

J W Rowe1, R L Kahn.   

Abstract

In 1984, the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation funded a long-term research program that brought together 16 scientists from various disciplines to study what factors contribute to successful physical and mental aging. Last year, two of those scientists published Successful Aging, in which they discuss the study's generally encouraging findings. In the sections excerpted below, they share some sometimes surprising insights into how people age in America.
