Abstract

The present paper formulates "laws" which govern the aging of human beings. The definition of aging is based on the vitality concept. These laws are divided into two classes: collective laws, and individual laws. They attempt to answer the questions: "How do organisms age?", and "Why do organisms age?" Up to now there are only preliminary answers.
