Review: Great information about the near and distant future of longevity research - This book has twelve main chapters, and about 211 pages in the digital version. The Foreword is written by by Peter Diamandis and Ray Kurzweil, two people that have written extensively about how technology will change our lives in the future. They explain Sergey Young's unique perspective as an investor in cutting-edge technology, and how his Age Reversal XPRIZE will encourage future scientific breakthroughs in the field of longevity research. In the first chapter, Young introduces the concept of “longevity escape velocity”, or the point at which our ability to extended the average human lifespan outpaces the passage of time. He points out that currently we add about one or two years of life expectancy every decade; but with some new medical technologies this could rapidly increase to even one year per year, at which point lifespans will be drastically increased. There is even the potential to “reverse” some things currently associated with aging. In the next few chapters Young discusses prevention of premature death, age reversal, and life extension; and what is currently being developed in each of these fields. Young mentions advances in AI diagnosing disease, genetic engineering, tissue regeneration, and increased health data collection. He explains different “theories of aging”, and identifies ten specific hallmarks of aging. Young explores the near future of DIY diagnostic devices, precision AI medicine, and using new technologies like CRISPR for gene editing. He describes advances in stem cell therapy, tissue regeneration, and new drugs and supplements. In the last few chapters Young focuses on the more distant future, discussing future advances that will lead to even greater advances in lifespan. Young mentions bionic limbs, nanobots, avatars, brain emulation, and uploading consciousness. Another chapter discusses the potential moral questions that might arise from becoming virtually immortal. Finally, the last bonus chapter gives a list of 10 things to do right now to help increase your longevity. Overall this was an inspirational and informative book, that really sparks the imagination about what will eventually be possible. Since Young is not really a scientist, he doesn't go into extensive detail about most of these ideas, rather giving a surface explanation of the current research; but it is a good starting point to do your own research if you are interested. I enjoyed reading this book, and it started me on a journey of reading more about some of the most recent advances in some of these fields.
Review: Fascinating, comprehensive, & easy to understand guide on how to live longer, healthier lives. - This was a great read from start to finish. Sergey interviews the best longevity researchers and experts in the world, and shares their views on how science will extend our healthy lifespan. It may sound like science fiction at first, but it's clear that we are on the verge of a longevity revolution. Each chapter is full of cutting-edge science and leading experts who are enabling cures for diseases of aging, and pioneering the next frontier in health and medicine. Sergey also shares helpful, science-backed tips on how we can take steps in our everyday lives to extend healthy longevity for ourselves and loved ones. Even better, Sergey presents all of these facts in an approachable, logical way that will have everyone excited about what the future holds--and that in the near future, science will find ways to slow, and even reverse, aging. This visionary book was incredibly fun and engaging. So much so, it was requested by several friends and family members; so I ordered more copies. The Science and Technology of Growing Young is highly recommended for anyone who is wants to enjoy a longer, healthier, fuller life for themselves and their loved ones.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Can we live longer ? A comprehensive guide on longevity....
*by J***L on August 24, 2021*

The concept of "growing young" was just something I wanted to look into out of curiosity, but once I started reading I just got sucked into it. The book introduces different life practices to help keep us young, different perspectives from experts, and much more. A great read for anybody interested in health and/or longevity. This book so far has been a great read with a large number of interesting life hacks and information from many different experts. Would happily recommend it. Book arrived in perfect condition the day it was released! I hope this review was helpful to you.
