Bloomsbury presents Ageless by Andrew Steele, read by Andrew Steele.

Ageless is a guide to the science driving biology’s biggest story: why we get old and how we can stop it.

Ageing - not cancer, not heart disease - is the world’s leading cause of death and suffering. We accept as inevitable that as we get older our bodies and minds begin to deteriorate, and we are increasingly likely to be struck by dementia or disease. Ageing is so deeply ingrained in human experience that we never think to ask: is it necessary?

Biologists, on the other hand, have been investigating that question for years.

Ageless introduces us to the cutting-edge research that is paving the way for a revolution in medicine. It takes us inside the laboratories where scientists are studying every aspect of the body - DNA, mitochondria, stem cells, our immune systems, even longevity genes that have helped animals to a tenfold increase in lifespan - all in an effort to forestall or reverse our decline.

Computational biologist Andrew Steele explains what is happening as we age and practical ways we can help slow down the process. He reveals how understanding the scientific implications of ageing could lead to the greatest discovery in the history of medicine - one that has the potential to improve billions of lives, save trillions of dollars and transform the human condition.

It’s worth reading to look at the future of aging

Andrew ‘talks’ to his readers, like he understands it’s ‘heavy’ content and he tries to keep it as simple as possible (although I’m not too far into the book) so I won’t give up trying to get all the way to the end.

interesting

Essentially, a brief summary of the book is that research is ongoing, there is some hope, but do not expect any treatment in the very near future, meanwhile eat healthy and exercise. Overall, it is a very good book for understanding the process of aging. Delves into scientific evidence and provides good description of the most recent developments. However, do not expect it to give you any valuable practical advice apart from you already probably know: you need eat healthy, do not smoke, exercise etc.

Andrew Steele’s Book “Ageless” has injected youth into this reader( who’s 78). Though terminology is necessarily scientific it is very worthwhile to persevere in the reading. A reference book to refer to and enforce what you’ve learned. An extraordinary read. Thanks Andrew.
