  For millennia, humanity has sought the secret to defying death. Only in recent decades, however, have we begun to unravel the complexities of aging, and conceived plausible technology paths to solving it. 
  Immortality or Death is a celebration of the remarkable strides made in aging research. This book offers a profound, comprehensive, and meticulously detailed exploration of our current understanding of aging, alongside the most advanced efforts to slow it down. With a critical eye, it debunks the allure of modern biohacking—the “false grail”—and shines a spotlight on the most promising scientific directions. Drawing on the systematization of over a thousand studies and research articles, Immortality or Death provides a balanced perspective, including healthy skepticism of pseudoscientific claims and optimism inspired by real scientific progress. 
  Beyond its scientific depth, Immortality or Death is an ode to human life itself, challenging the outdated notion that the pursuit of immortality or agelessness is the domain of mad tyrants or unethical scientists. The book champions this quest as a noble and deeply human endeavor, rooted in compassion and curiosity. Finally, it outlines both a scientific roadmap and social strategies to accelerate progress in humanity's ongoing battle against the injustice of death, encouraging readers to imagine a future where aging is no longer inevitable.

  The study of geometry is at least 2500 years old, and it is within this field that the concept of mathematical proof—deductive reasoning from a set of axioms—first arose. To this day geometry remains a very active area of research in mathematics. 
   
   
   
  This Very Short Introduction covers the areas of mathematics falling under geometry, starting with topics such as Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometries, and ranging to curved spaces, projective geometry in Renaissance art, and geometry of space-time inside a black hole. Starting from the basics, Maciej Dunajski proceeds from concrete examples (of mathematical objects like Platonic solids, or theorems like the Pythagorean theorem) to general principles. Throughout, he outlines the role geometry plays in the broader context of science and art.

  Bacteria in Daily Life

  The author provides a fascinating look at the emerging science of bacteriology at the start of the twentieth century including early progress in understanding and preventing diseases such as tuberculosis and diphtheria. The book also includes chapters on the spread of disease through close contact with infected persons as well as from contaminated drinking water and milk.  Water purification methods as well as the stability of various disease-causing organisms to extremes of heat and cold is discussed.  The final chapter includes a very interesting discussion of the development of anti-venoms for the treatment of snake bite and related poisons.   (summary by J. M. Smallheer)  
  NY Times Book Review April 4, 1903:Mrs. Frankland's book is a popular presentation in lively style of what the ordinary unscientific person should know of bacteria as they immediately affect daily life. She has managed to invest her subject with astonishing interest and to produce a work that any sane man or woman can read without weariness.  Beginning with Latour's discovery of the fact that yeasty fermentation is due to minute vegetable growths, she traces rapidly the development of bacteriological knowledge through the age of Victoria.  As a matter of fact the announcement of Latour's discovery and the accession of Victoria to the throne came very close together in the same year.Following this historical disquisition is a presentation in successive chapters of these subjects: "What We Breathe," "Sunshine  and Life," "Bacteriology and Water," "Milk Dangers and Remedies," "Bacteria and Ice," and "Poisons and Their Prevention."  The most practical chapter for the householder is that on milk.  The most novel and interesting is perhaps that on poisons and their prevention.  This chapter deals largely with snake venom, and its revelations are marvelous.  Next in practical value to the chapter on milk is that on water.  It is satisfactory to find the author assuming that boiled water may be regarded as sterile.  Interesting and important also is the fact that an analysis of many natural mineral springs shows them to be nearly free from bacteria.  The resistence of bacteria to cold is one of the most striking things set forth in the book, and the destructive power of sunshine is another.
