'A stunner ... If you haven't got this book in your house, I don't know why' Chris Evans
'A startling wake-up call . . . Writing with the vim of a Bill Bryson and the technical knowledge of a scientist, Steele gives us a chance to grasp what's at stake' Independent
'An exhilarating journey . . . Steele is a superb guide' Telegraph
'A fascinating read with almost every page bursting with extraordinary facts . . . Read it now' Mail on Sunday
Ageless is a guide to the biggest issue we all face. Ageing – not cancer, not heart disease – is the world's leading cause of death and suffering. What would the world be like if we could cure it?
Living disease-free until the age of 100 is achievable within our lifetimes. In prose that is lucid and full of fascinating facts, Ageless introduces us to the cutting-edge research that is paving the way for this revolution. Computational biologist Andrew Steele explains what occurs biologically as we age, as well as practical ways we can slow down the process. He reveals how understanding the scientific implications of ageing could lead to the greatest discovery in the history of civilisation – one that has the potential to improve billions of lives, save trillions of dollars, and transform the human condition.©2020 Andrew Steele (P)2020 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

Kritikerstimmen
A tour de force of anti-ageing science
Steele is a superb guide to the wilder fringes of real medicine . . . He understands that ageing is an experience to be lived meaningfully and fully, as well as a fascinating medical problem to be solved. His vision is very tightly controlled . . . I heartily recommend Ageless. It’s modest in scope, and generous in detail. It’s an honest and optimistic contribution
Ambitious and energetic . . . Give[s] a startling round-up of the biological factors that make us age and the emerging techniques to tackle them . . . Writing with the vim of a Bill Bryson and the technical knowledge of a scientist, Steele gives us a chance to grasp what’s at stake in this dazzling, daunting age where big data meets human biology
Ageless employs a scientific vocabulary – autophagy, amyloids, adducts and countless other specialised terms abound. But the book is nevertheless accessible, its style chatty and engaging . . . This is an enthralling book . . . Ageless is a rich and exciting exploration of that surprisingly intriguing topic we’d rather not talk about: old age
A fascinating read with almost every page bursting with extraordinary facts . . . Steele is not a crank or a snake-oil salesman. He’s not a ‘wellness’ YouTuber. He doesn’t work for Goop. He’s a biologist . . . We can take what he says seriously
There are some incredible revelations in this book. The science is fascinating . . . What Steele says is both revolutionary and important – life-changing in the true sense of the word. His thinking is bold, visionary, utopian
A fascinating book delivering an education into the ageing process and an insight into the possibilities of the future (Tim Lovejoy)
An immensely important book. Steele surveys the biology of human ageing, as well as the cutting-edge research on how to prevent it. The first person to achieve immortality may already have been born. Is it you?! (Professor Lewis Dartnell, author of 'Origins')
This is an essential book for anyone interested in the fast-developing science of longevity (Jim Mellon, Chairman of Juvenescence)
Ageless is a fascinating, stimulating and pleasingly practical guide to the science of ageing and how we might be able to bend the arrow of biological time to improve our health (Kat Arney, author of 'Rebel Cell: Cancer, Evolution and the Science of Life')
Few issues can be more important for our future than ensuring we age as well as possible. Ageless explains the extraordinary achievements and promise of current scientific research around longevity. Read it and prepare to think differently about your future (Andrew Scott, Professor of Economics, London Business School and co-author of 'The 100-Year Life')
Will be changing careers after this, which is quite a feat for any book to pull off.
The best book on longevity yet.

Based on an evolutionary perspectives on ageing and a comparison between species, the author argues that ageing is not inevitable. As a trained physicists, he then focuses on the key molecular hallmarks of ageing - and how they could be targeted by modern medicine. Given recent promising advances, he urges for more funding for biogerontology, the field concerned with the biological basis of ageing, and for more clinical trials as people already self-medicate - with all the possible harmful outcomes without the benefit of learning achieved by clinical studies.
Excellent book on the mechanisms of ageing

Therefore this book gives a good overview of the currently 10 known hallmarks of aging and how they work, and how in the not to far future we can hopefully change it to the better for our species and for ourselves. Because the chance that you and i will suffer from cancer, alzheimers or something else age related is overwhelmingly high.
I would suggest to read about it and then talk to friends who never considered the possiblities of slowing or even reversing the aging process.
An important read or in this case hear
