"Brain aging has long been seen as a process of deterioration and decline. Today,
this view been challenged with research showing that not all cognitive processes decline
with age, that some improve over the course of adulthood, and those that improve can
often compensate for those that decline. Chapters in this multidisciplinary volume
examine the neural mechanisms underlying changes in the aging brain, changes in learning
and memory, risk and protective factors, and the assessment and prevention of cognitive
decline"
