This guide begins by providing useful explanations of web addresses, search techniques and caveats as to the quality of information found. The rest of the work provides guidance on appropriate sites to search for various topics in the field. Sections cover general health, ageing, diseases and conditions of ageing, longevity, experimental treatments such as cryogenics and transplants, research, organisations and publications. Included is a useful glossary and an index. While most of the sites are in the US, since all are accessible via the internet this may not detract much from their relevance to those this side of the Atlantic.
