## Description

From the Publisher

Review: Great book on the science of ageing - Longevity, life span, health span are all subjects that have come to centre stage along with AI in the last few years. This book is not the first accessible book for non-scientists on this subject but is remarkable for its very objective look at what scientists have learned about ageing. I found this a fascinating read both because of the subject and the simplicity with which the author writes about the body at the cellular level. The book is largely about science but also humanity. To some extent Dr Ramakrishnan punctures the over excited pseudo science about supplements like metformin, rapamycin, AMPK activators, and reseveratrol etc. The underlying message is simple although he conveys it lightly — science will progress and come out with useful and useable findings but for now it’s better to focus on traditional wisdom and established science that emphasises heathy eating with calorie restriction, regular but not excessive exercise, good sleep, and a World view of contentment. It’s a short book and, despite the science inter spread with stories of the scientists, is an easy read.
Review: Excellent Insights - A bit tough to read as the subject is also heavy. But very lucidly written. His podcasts supplement the book
