Here's an EXCERPT:

Cell-to-cell communication. Aging thus apparently results as protein synthesis declines and cells no longer respond correctly to cues from other cells. Or no longer send correct cues to their neighbors. Or both. Aging, in this view, is a cell communication failure that results from shortened telomeres. And here’s how it works.

The aging process. Cells, as they age, produce more and more free radicals that progressively cripple them and damage their neighbors. As tissues and organs thus decline, the organism that houses them ages. Then dies. This is death’s language. We’ve had enough of it. Now let’s learn the language of life.

Life’s language. The language of life is the language of signals and receptors that cells use to communicate with each other. Its four-letter alphabet is coded in your DNA. Its words are the glycoproteins coded by your genes. The set of DNA specifications for building a living thing is not like a collection of engineering drawings.

Embryonic algorithm. It’s more like what a computer scientist would call an algorithm or we would call a recipe. More precisely, your DNA is rather more like an integrated set of software (genome) with many programs (genes) that work together like a set of recipes that work together to specify the ingredients and steps needed to prepare a meal – the feast of your lifetime! Your genome thus describes a series of successive steps that directs your embryonic cells, as they divide, into progressively more differentiated cells that unfold. To become you!

Unfolding you. As your embryo unfolds from the union of sperm and egg, its telomeric clocks begin to tick. And with each click, the telomeric hoods of each cell retract to reveal the next steps to take to become a different type of cell. This is the essence of your embryogenesis. And it also tells each new type of cell where to go (what gradients of scents to follow, like some bloodhound) to form your unfolding embryo. This is the essence of your morphogenesis – the unfolding of you.
