Abstract
Perhaps the earliest adumbration of modern interest in problems of old age was Quetelet's important two-volume work on Man and the Development of his Faculties in 1835 (55). In this book appeared for the first time data of a kind since become very familiar: ages when various crimes are committed, when literary masterpieces are written, ages of admission to hospitals for the insane, and so on.Keywords
