Sobre este áudio

From a leading expert on longevity, an urgent call for individuals, institutions, and society to adapt to the reality of living longer lives

Thanks to increases in life expectancy, we can now expect to live for a long time. Most of us would welcome an extra day in the week, so why do so many of us view the prospect of additional years with fear and skepticism? The reason is simple: society is not currently structured to support long lives. Rather than thinking in terms of the needs of a rising number of older people, we must instead support the young and middle-aged to prepare differently for the longer futures they can expect.

The Longevity Imperative outlines the innovations needed to make the most of these longer lives: substantial changes to our health system, economy, and financial sector, as well as in how we manage our careers, health, finances, and relationships. Instead of seeing longevity as a problem, economist Andrew J. Scott challenges us to view it as an opportunity. This book charts a course to address the individual, social, political, economic, and cultural changes required so that all of us—regardless of age—can live lives that are not just longer but healthier, happier, and more productive.

Resumo da Crítica

“Finally, a manifesto to guide the longevity revolution. Should be required reading for every physician and politician. A revelation on every page.”—David Sinclair, author of New York Times bestseller Lifespan

“Wide ranging yet personal, The Longevity Imperative definitively places population aging on the very short list of megatrends that will transform how we live tomorrow.”—Joe Coughlin, author of The Longevity Economy

“As improvements in medical science and living standards ensure that most of us now live to be old. How do we make sure that we age well—that we are ‘evergreen’? That is the question at the heart of Andrew Scott’s striking new book, which argues persuasively that aging is as big a challenge for humanity as climate change or artificial intelligence. Scott has some wise suggestions as to how exactly we can do it.”—Niall Ferguson, author of The Ascent of Money
