	Description:		Americans are afraid of aging and death, but how much control do we have over these processes? Barbara Ehrenreich discusses this in her latest book Natural Causes: An Epidemic of Wellness, the Certainty of Dying, and Killing Ourselves to Live Longer. Ehrenreich looks at aging on a cellular level and exhibits how little control we actually have over the aging process, despite fervent attempts like purchasing anti-aging products, undergoing cosmetic surgery, or eating more kale. Barbara Ehrenreich will be in conversation with Alissa Quart on April 10 at 7 pm at the Upper East Side Barnes & Noble (150 East 86th Street). This segment is guest hosted by Kai Wright.
