Summary

"Old Age Deferred" by Arnold Lorand is a scientific book that looks at why people age and how to make the process slower using different health and medical ideas. It was written in the early 1900s and focuses on how important glands are in the body and how they connect to getting old. The book wants to teach people ways to stay young longer and reduce the bad effects of being old by discussing things like arteriosclerosis. The book suggests that early deaths can be avoided by understanding how to stay healthy. While you can't become young again, the book says you can stay energetic for longer by following certain medical and lifestyle advice. It points out that signs of aging can show up sooner than you might think, and this has to do with problems in glands and how the body uses energy, especially talking about glands like the thyroid, which are key to staying young.
