Contents
Demography tips the balance of power
The stages of life are changing
If exercise and diet was a pill, we’d all be taking it
Old brains can learn new tricks – and they must, to keep in shape
Immortality isn’t here yet, but anti-ageing drugs are on the way
Everyone needs a neighbourhood
Robots care for you, humans care about you
In memory of Richard Cavendish,
1930–2016
