The Aging Revolution is the story of Butler and his disciples: women and men who saw older distressed adults in hospitals and homes, and worse: being ignored by most of the medical establishment. These revolutionaries could not ignore the suffering, and they set out—individually and collectively—to create entirely new ways of caring for aging adults to ease their suffering and improve their quality and length of life.

“Not all enemies wear faces. Not all heroes seek fame.” It came without a warning. No horns. No fire. No crashing skies. Just breath… carrying more than air. An invisible presence moved through us—quietly, quickly, and without favour. It didn’t ask for passports. It didn’t care about class. It didn’t knock before entering. And suddenly… everything we thought we knew about safety, community, and survival unravelled. We panicked. We scrambled. We blamed. But slowly… Quietly… We remembered. That cleanliness is not just a habit. It is a shield.

In the eighteenth century the first American medical school was established in Philadelphia. Following the model of European universities, anatomical lectures were conducted with cadavers. But where did the bodies come from? Dissection was viewed as a fate worse than death, and the only legal source of "stiffs" was executed criminals. But there were not enough. As the medical profession and its need for "anatomical material" grew, a new, macabre practice emerged: body snatching.
