Longevity of Specific Populations [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
The longevity of various world populations is reviewed based on examples from the US, Europe, Asia, and Africa. Differences in longevity between genders are discussed, including possible reasons for the greater life span of females. Centenarian populations are also examined. Body size among various populations is evaluated in terms of its relation to longevity. Various factors are examined that may affect the difference in life expectancy found among the world's populations. The article concludes with a review of the biological mechanisms that may explain the differences in longevity between tall and short people.
