The essential cause of aging is molecular damage that slowly overwhelms cellular and organismic defense, repair and maintenance systems. Sophisticated research has transformed this idea from a credible hypothesis to accepted knowledge. This work examines the key elements in this transformation. It is useful for students and researchers.
