  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  Beyond its scientific depth, Immortality or Death is an ode to human life itself, challenging the outdated notion that the pursuit of immortality or agelessness is the domain of mad tyrants or unethical scientists.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.

  "Every day of our lives, we make judgments—and we don’t always do a very good job of it. Thinking 101 is an invaluable resource to anyone who wants to think better. In remarkably clear language, and with engaging and often funny examples, Woo-kyoung Ahn uses cutting-edge research to explain the mistakes we often make—and how to avoid them.”—Gretchen Rubin, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Happiness Project and The Four Tendencies"Thinking 101 is a must-read—a smart and compellingly readable guide to cutting-edge research into how people think.

It quickly became one of the university’s most popular courses. Now, for the first time, Ahn presents key insights from her years of teaching and research in a book for everyone.She shows how “thinking problems” stand behind a wide range of challenges, from common, self-inflicted daily aggravations to our most pressing societal issues and inequities. Throughout, Ahn draws on decades of research from other cognitive psychologists, as well as from her own groundbreaking studies. And she presents it all in a compellingly accessible style that uses fun examples from pop culture, anecdotes from her own life, and illuminating stories from history and the headlines.Thinking 101 is an audiobook that goes far beyond other resources on thinking, showing how we can improve not just our own daily lives through better awareness of our biases but also the lives of everyone around us. It is, quite simply, required listening for everyone who wants to think—and live—better.A Macmillan Audio production from Flatiron Books

  Restoring Eden - Unearthing the...

  All spring, Dr. Elizabeth Hilborn watched as her family fruit farm of many years became increasingly diminished, suffering from a lack of bees. 
   
   
   
  The plentiful wildlife, so abundant just weeks before, was gone. Everything was still, silent. 
   
   
   
  As an environmental scientist trained to investigate disease outbreaks, she rose to the challenge. Despite facing headwinds from skeptical neighbors, environmental experts, and agricultural consultants, she'd assembled information. 
   
   
   
  The chemicals found in her water samples showed beyond any doubt that not only her farm, but her greater farming community, was at risk from toxic chemicals that traveled with rain water over the land and deep within the soil. 
   
   
   
  Even as a scientist, she'd been unaware of the risks to life from some common agricultural chemicals. Her goal was to protect her farm and the animals who lived there. 
   
   
   
  But first she had to convince her rural neighbors of the risk to their way of life, too. 
   
   
   
  A lyrical celebration of nature by a passionate citizen scientist who felt called to advocate for the land, earth, and creatures who don't have a voice, Restoring Eden ultimately offers hope that citizens can create change, that reform is possible.
