Dr. James J. Barber, a board-certified plastic surgeon turned anti-aging advocate, shares the science and philosophy behind slowing—and even reversing—the aging process. Grounded in the loss of his mother and years of medical practice, the book covers theories of aging, antioxidants, nutrition, exercise, stress management, skincare, and the power of positive attitude, love, and service. Part medical primer, part motivational guide, it urges readers to take control of their health today rather than putting it off until tomorrow. Written by a board-certified plastic surgeon whose mother's early death launched his quest for anti-aging answers Blends cutting-edge (for its time) longevity science with practical, do-it-today lifestyle steps Motivational, quote-rich approach that treats aging as a choice, not a sentence Covers the whole person—body, brain, appearance, stress, attitude, and spirit Perfect for a middle-aged or older adult worried about aging who wants practical, motivational, and lifestyle-based strategies to feel and look younger.
