Humanity is on the cusp of an exciting longevity revolution. The first person to live to 150 years has probably already been born. What will your life look like when you live to be over 100? Will you be healthy? Will your marriage need a sunset clause? How long will you have to work? Will you finish one career at sixty-five only to go back to school to learn a new one? And then, will you be happily working for another sixty years? Maybe you'll be a parent to a newborn and a grandparent at the same time. Will the world become overpopulated? And how will living longer affect your finances, your family life, and your views on religion and the afterlife? In "100 Plus," futurist Sonia Arrison takes us on an eye-opening journey to the future at our doorsteps, where science and technology are beginning to radically change life as we know it. She introduces us to the people transforming our lives: the brilliant scientists and genius inventors and the billionaires who fund their work. The astonishing advances to extend our lives--and good health--are almost here. In the very near future fresh organs for transplants will be grown in laboratories, cloned stem cells will bring previously unstoppable diseases to their knees, and living past 100 will be the rule, not the exception. Sonia Arrison brings over a decade of experience researching and writing about cutting-edge advances in science and technology to "100 Plus," painting a vivid picture of a future that only recently seemed like science fiction, but now is very real. "100 Plus" is the first book to give readers a comprehensive understanding of how life-extending discoveries will change our social and economic worlds. This illuminating and indispensable text will help us navigate the thrilling journey of life beyond 100 years.

评分活过百岁~
评分作者回顾了一些生物科学前沿技术包括人造器官、延缓细胞衰老、癌症治疗等,然后展开活到120岁对社会的影响。到了社会影响那部分实在是太无聊了,闭着眼睛都能想到什么贫富矛盾,家庭结构,婚姻关系...
评分围绕的主题很明确,但是旁征博引涉及的内容很多。作者说到底还是个技术乐观者,其实想想看现在很多社会问题的根源,都可以看作是人万年不变的固有生物属性和飞速发展的社会产生了矛盾,既然是这样,那么改造自己以适应文明发展也并非不可接受,况且早就迈出了第一步
