Synopsis

"Longest Lifespans" explores the extraordinary world of animals that defy aging, offering insights into the biological secrets behind their remarkable longevity. From the Greenland shark, which can live for centuries, to the Turritopsis dohrnii jellyfish, seemingly immortal, the book delves into the genetic and environmental factors that contribute to their extended lifespans. One intriguing area of research is the study of DNA repair mechanisms in these creatures, which appear to be far more efficient than in shorter-lived species. Another is cellular senescence, a process that seems to be significantly delayed or even avoided in some of these animals. The book investigates how these unique adaptations could hold the key to understanding and potentially extending human healthspan. By examining the biology of these long-lived animals, researchers hope to unlock crucial information about the aging process and translate these discoveries into strategies for promoting healthy aging in humans. The book begins by establishing a scientific context, then progresses through specific animal examples and the biological mechanisms at play, culminating in a discussion of potential applications for human health and highlighting the significance of genetics and life sciences in this field.

    A compelling story of one family's determination to save their grumpy old horse against all odds. 
    The Baker family bought Denver to be a family horse, and he took care of their children for several years as well as he could. So when, in a freak trailer accident, Denver injured himself badly, the family was upset. 
    Denver's girl, Tessa, was devastated.  
    Sadly, his injury was difficult to diagnose, and once they finally figured out what was wrong, it was so rare that it didn't really have an established treatment. The vets suggested the Bakers put him down, since he was old, and frankly, not so great. He hadn't been expnsive, and the experimental treatment they thought might save him was risky, long term, and expensive.  
    The Baker family decided to take a gamble on their beloved horse anyway.  
    The decision changed all their lives, and it blessed them in ways they never expected. Join Denver and Bridget as they tell the story from dual POVs. It will break your heart, but it will heal it again and then some.

    An absorbing and often hilarious account of the author's 12 years as closeted cabin crew for British Airways.  It's a story of love, creativity and acceptance, the transformative power of lesbian love and more.  Told with the wit and verve that characterised her debut novel, Karen's memoir of flying as cabin crew offers a fascinating insight into the profound impact of long-haul life.  Having come out as a lesbian she is forced to go back in as colleagues advise her that it is not ok to be gay, unlike male cabin crew. Brimming with vertiginous loops and extreme globe-trotting, against a backdrop of exotic locations, hotel bars and nightclubs, Karen slowly unravels as the inability to truly be herself reverberates. This is the story of how Karen finally came into land. How she learned to look after herself and discovered her true strength. "Atmospheric and idiosyncratic, this is a memoir that entertains and emboldens" Observer
