Since time began mankind has grown, in general terms, in different stages: Infancy; Childhood, Adolescence, Youth, Adulthood and Old Age.
The interesting point is that, in our century, longevity has become most people’s fate, at least in developed countries. Living old is good, but the important issue is living wholly, enjoying this stage.
This work is a historical outlook from the ancient times up to the present, analyzing criteria in different cultures which refer to the marvelous and continuously increasing legion of the old.
