What if aging was no longer inevitable? What if science could not only slow but reverse the aging process? In Forever Young? Exploring the Ethical and Scientific Frontiers of Age Reversal, leading-edge research collides with profound ethical dilemmas as we explore humanity's most audacious quest: the pursuit of eternal youth.
From CRISPR-driven genetic modifications to senolytics that target 'zombie cells,' scientists are on the brink of rewriting our biological destiny. But as we push the boundaries of longevity, what are the societal consequences? Will access to life-extending technologies be equitable, or will they deepen the chasm between the rich and the poor? Can our minds handle the psychological weight of immortality? What happens to the environment, family structures, and global economies when humans routinely live for 150 years or more?
This book delves into the cutting-edge science, philosophical debates, and global policy challenges surrounding the longevity revolution. Through compelling research and thought-provoking scenarios, Forever Young? challenges readers to consider not just whether we can live forever—but whether we should.
