Reviews"Super Agers captures the extraordinary potential of today's biomedical revolution. With breakthroughs like CRISPR genome editing and AI intersecting and accelerating at a remarkable pace, we stand at the threshold of preventing age-related diseases and unlocking new possibilities for longevity. Eric Topol's optimistic and inspiring vision makes this book an essential guide to the future of health." --Jennifer Doudna, Nobel Laureate, CRISPR gene editing co-inventor, and Innovative Genomics Institute founder, "In Super Agers , Eric Topol offers detailed insight into the factors that affect aging -- and proof of AI's incredible potential to advance biomedical science, promote health, and extend longevity." --Demis Hassabis, CEO, Google DeepMind, Nobel Laureate, AI Protein Structure Prediction, "Super Agers offers a compelling and comprehensive guide to cutting-edge treatments that rejuvenate the body, prevent diseases and enhance overall health. With practical advice on screenings, vaccinations, and proactive care, it also reveals an inspiring vision of how breakthroughs in biomedical science will impact our aging process and healthy lifespan." --Steve Horvath, inventor of the Horvath aging clock, "Imagine a world where diseases once thought incurable are treated, where we are healthier for longer. This future is getting close thanks to a radical convergence of AI and bioscience. In this gripping, vitally important and meticulously researched account, Eric Topol reveals the extraordinary breakthroughs that are transforming medicine--and our lives." --Mustafa Suleyman, CEO of Microsoft AI, "This eye-opening book reveals that the secret to longevity lies not in the miracle of anti-aging pills, but in groundbreaking scientific advancements. Drawing on a vast body of research, Dr. Topol shows us how modern science is paving the path toward longer, healthier lives." --Katalin Karikó, Nobel Laureate and author of Breaking Through, "A beautifully written book packed with evidence and hope. Eric Topol's vision of how AI will reduce age-related diseases is truly inspiring because it is based on his profound understanding of healthcare and his impressive grasp of AI." --Geoffrey Hinton, Nobel Laureate in physics for his contributions to AI, " Super Agers provides a remarkable insight into the aging process, controversies in the field and opportunities to intervene to attenuate age-related pathologies. This is a must-read book for those interested in the revolution in our understanding of aging, providing inspiration and hope for future research efforts in this field." --Charles Swanton FRCP, Principal Group Leader Francis Crick Institute, Royal Society Napier Professor in Cancer, and oncologist University College London Hospitals, " A compelling and comprehensive guide to cutting-edge treatments that rejuvenate the body, prevent diseases and enhance overall health." --Steve Horvath, inventor of the Horvath aging clock, "In Super Agers , Eric Topol offers detailed insight into the factors that affect aging--and proof of AI's incredible potential to advance biomedical science, promote health, and extend longevity." --Demis Hassabis, Nobel Laureate and CEO of Google DeepMind, "Eric Topol is not only a distinguished geneticist, cardiologist, and scientist: he is the most widely read and credible health 'futurist' I know. Super Agers is a highly readable and evidence-based digest of those astonishing advances in medicine, science, and technology that directly affect our lifespans. A landmark book." --Abraham Verghese, author of The Covenant of Water, "In Super Agers , Eric Topol offers detailed insight into the factors that affect aging -- and proof of AI's incredible potential to advance biomedical science, promote health, and extend longevity." --Demis Hassabis, CEO of Google DeepMind, Nobel Laureate, AI Protein Structure Prediction, "A beautifully written book packed with evidence and hope. Eric Topol's vision of how AI will reduce age-related diseases is truly inspiring." --Geoffrey Hinton, Nobel Laureate in physics for his contributions to AI, "Super Agers captures the extraordinary potential of today's biomedical revolution. Eric Topol's optimistic and inspiring vision makes this book an essential guide to the future of health." --Jennifer Doudna, Nobel Laureate, CRISPR gene editing co-inventor, and Innovative Genomics Institute founder, "An extraordinary book that offers a reality check as well as a blueprint for the future. Topol manages to navigate the science of aging, to distinguish it from the pseudoscience, and to provide readers an honest and measured sense of what we do and don't know. The result is a beautifully written journey into a world that is bound to change our lives." --Siddhartha Mukherjee, author of The Emperor of All Maladies and The Song of the Cell

SynopsisA New York Times Bestseller Super Agers is a detailed guide to a revolution transforming human longevity. This is a breakthrough moment in the history of human health care. The person making that bold claim is one of the most respected medical researchers in the world, Eric Topol. Dr. Topol's unprecedented, evidenced-based guide is about how you and your family and friends can benefit from new treatments coming available at a faster rate than ever. From his unique position as a leader overseeing millions in research funding, Dr. Topol also explains the fundamental reasons--from semaglutides to AI--that we can be confident these breakthroughs will continue. Ninety-five percent of Americans over sixty have at least one chronic disease and almost as many have two. That is the essential problem this revolution is solving. He explains the power of the new approaches to the worst chronic killers--diabetes/obesity, heart disease, cancer, and neurodegeneration--and how treatments can begin long before middle age, and even long after. In thirty years, we will have five times as many people at least one hundred years old and they will be healthier than ever because of the breakthroughs Dr. Topol describes. The amazing discoveries Topol brings into sharp focus are deeply inspiring about our human potential. We can now realistically see how we can make considerable headway for preventing age-related diseases and may one day be able to slow the body-wide aging process itself., One of the most respected, celebrated, and influential medical researchers in the world gives a guided tour of the revolution in longevity science that is exploding now.
