本书能成为经典之作，是近十年来令人兴奋的生物学著作。— 肯德尔（Eric Kandel），诺贝尔生理医学奖得主

这本书将改变我们对老化和疾病的看法。— 凯斯勒（David Kessler），曾任美国食品暨药物管理局局长

可读性非常高、平易近人的使用手册，让每一个想要增进健康的人获益良多，从零岁到一百岁都适用。— 艾弗洛斯（Rita B. Effros），前美国老年医学会会长

作者将科学全新进展融会贯通，让一般读者和专家都能读得津津有味。此外，这是一本有温度的书，作者的人性关怀令人动容。— 马莫特（Michael Marmot），世界医师会会长

作者为我们绘制一张人生地图，教我们如何老得健康、快乐。本书文字晓畅明白，引人入胜，让人欲罢不能。— 卡斯滕森（Laura Carstensen），史丹佛大学长寿研究中心创始人

我们终于能从生物学、行为与社会影响，来了解为何有些人能老当益壮，还有一些人则饱受病痛折磨。《端粒效应》就是这么一本好书，深具教育意义，且富有文采，为我们剖析行为、健康和长寿的关系。— 弗里曼（Howard S. Friedman），加州大学河滨分校教授

端粒（telomere）是染色体的末端，也是染色体的保护箍。

诺贝尔生理医学奖得主伊丽莎白.布莱克本，长期钻研端粒现象与效应，她发现：

正是端粒的长短，控制了细胞和人体的寿命；而且端粒不只是会执行遗传指令，还会听从你的指示，也就是说，你的生活方式等同于对你的端粒下令，让你细胞老化得更快或更慢一点。

布莱克本与心理学家埃利萨·埃佩尔合作，走入人群，积极验证心理因素和生活环境如何影响端粒的长短、以及人体的健康与老化。

这本震撼世界的《端粒效应》，就是两人近年的研究成果，将呈献给读者，真正有效的逆龄养生之道。

A ground breaking book on the history of Telomeres offering fresh advice on how to slow down aging and lengthen life. Nobel prize winning Doctor Elizabeth Blackburn and leading health psychologist Dr Elissa Epel have discovered biological markers called Telomeres which can help to understand how healthy our cells are and what we can do to improve them.

The book specifically looks ideas including; how biological age is not chronological age; a biological basis for the mind-body connection, how sleep and diet can affect telomeres and shockingly how mothers who are highly stressed during pregnancy have children with shorter telomeres. It also offers tools and advice on how to determine cellular age and telomere health.

Doctor Elizabeth Blackburn was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2009 for her discovery of telomeres and their role in the ageing process and has previously been named in TIME magazine's 100 Most Influential People.

Dr. Elissa Epel is a leading health psychologist who has conducted pioneering research uncovering the psychobiological mechanisms related to how stress ages us and compromises our health-from emotional eating to unhealthy storage of abdominal fat to telomere shortening.

埃利萨·埃佩尔博士是一位健康心理学家，她开展了开拓性研究，揭示与压力如何影响我们并危及我们健康的心理生物学机制—从情绪化饮食到不健康的腹部脂肪储存到端粒缩短。
