I've written a number of books on longevity and immortality. But I've only had some partial chapters on long lived plants and animals. This is an important subject because all of this life is based on the same DNA code we have in our own bodies. If this life can live for hundreds or thousands of years then this says that it is possible for humanity to live that long also. Here I've researched and included lots of specimens of animal and plant life which represent the extremes of longevity for widely varying life. This book covers the plant, animal kingdoms and includes lifeforms which are essentially immortal. Also, it is just fascinating to see who the longest lived mammals are, the oldest fish, and what about trees and bushes which have been around for thousands of years.

Redox Metabolism and Longevity Relationships in Animals and Plants focuses on the recent issues that have emerged in ageing research in both the animal and plant kingdoms. This volume reviews current concepts concerning cellular redox homeostatis and ageing in animals and plants, relationships to programmed cell death, the production of oxidants and dicarbonyls, the ways that different organisms perceive and respond to oxidative, nitration and glycation challenges, and how this might be intricately connected to ageing and lifespan.

Meet the science experts who study specimens of extreme longevity in both the plant and animal kingdoms, such as the 80,000-year-old root system of Pando (a colony of male quaking aspens), 11,000-year-old deep-sea sponges, and 400-year-old sharks. Learn about technologies used to determine age and longevity, including DNA sampling, growth rings, and radiocarbon dating. See how scientists located these long-lived species were and why and how they resist disease and aging. And delve into how scientists are using what they know about aged plants and animals to research how we can promote longevity in humans.

This book is about communities and cities around the world where people live to very old ages. It is divided into two groups. Those communities who have the longest lived peoples in the world. Lots of lifestyle and diet data is included for them. The second group are another set of communities which have high average ages which people live to but are not quite the outliers that the first group is. I’ve also tried to provide some general lifestyle and diet guidelines to give an idea of why these places are different for longevity purposes. The first four communities were also profiled in my book “Diets and Lifestyles of the World's Oldest Peoples & 32 Longevity Recipes” which goes into lot of details about these four locations including traditional recipes. Overall, I think you will get a better idea of what the reasons are why people live a long time in these locations around the world which may give you ideas about adapting your lifestyle and diets to have maximum longevity.
