For many, the terms aging, maturation and senescence are synonymous and used interchangeably, but they should not be. Whereas senescence represents an endogenously controlled degenerative programme leading to plant or organ death, genetiC aging encompasses a wide array of passive degenerative genetiC processes driven primarily by exogenous factors (Leopold, 1975). Aging is therefore considered a consequence of genetiC lesions that accumulate over time, but by themselves do not necessarily cause death. These lesions are probably made more severe by the increase in size and complexity in trees and their attendant physiology. Thus while the withering of flower petals following pollination can be considered senescence, the loss of viability of stored seeds more clearly represents aging (Norden, 1988). The very recent book "Senescence and Aging in Plants" does not discuss trees, the most dominant group of plants on the earth. Yet both angiospermic and gymnospermic trees also undergo the above phenomena but less is known about them. Do woody plants senesce or do they just age? What is phase change? Is this synonymous with maturation? While it is now becoming recognized that there is no programmed senescence in trees, senescence of their parts, even in gymnosperms (e. g. , needles of temperate conifers las t an average of 3. 5 years), is common; but aging is a readily acknowledged phenomenon. In theory, at least, in the absence of any programmed senescence trees should -live forever, but in practice they do not.

To defying the modern look of perspective. May you crumble at the integrity of my words. may you fall before its expansion of understanding. may it gift you a sense of realization. may it point your ways to righteousness. may it teach you to consider and may it teach you to forgive. I hope this teaches you to live. I hope this teaches you to die.

Hoy en día es algo muy habitual escuchar debates o noticias en los medios de comunicación acerca de la existencia e dudas acerca de si la Seguridad Social podrá seguir asumiendo las pensiones de jubilación, o si es un bulo intencionado de algunos sectores económicos o políticos por minorar las prestaciones públicas.El problema es lo suficientemente agudo como para detenernos a plantearnos cómo debemos planificar el patrimonio durante nuestra vida laboral para poder vivir dignamente después de la jubilación."Este libro de mi inquieto amigo Roberto Rodríguez es una gran aportación, pone el foco en la acción para hacer más atractivo el jubileo de nuestras postreras décadas". – F.
