Invecchiare bene Vivere meglio

It is with great pleasure that I write this introductory note to the book by my colleague and friend Dr. Fernando Alemanno, titled “Invecchiare Bene, Vivere Meglio”. Already author of the volume “A Cosa Serve la Biochimica” (Verduci Editore), also published in English as “Biochemistry for Anesthesiologists and Intensivists” (Springer Verlag), Alemanno has drawn on the professional expertise acquired over a lifetime of study and work to tackle a complex subject with methodological rigor and remarkable clarity.

Using simple and accessible language—even for those without a biological background—the Author reviews the fundamental mechanisms that regulate human life, highlighting the causes of aging and deterioration along with possible remedies. I warmly recommend this book to everyone, as the principles it presents, when properly applied, can help readers live well and age better.
