Is death inevitable? Until now, the history of mankind has been
marked by this fatal fact. Religions, borders and progress are born
from an ancient fear of death, comfort from this fear man often
found only in religious paradigms. But according to José Luis
Cordeiro and David Wood, the incontrovertible fact of death is no
longer an absolute certainty - science and technology are preparing
to tear down the final frontier: that of immortality. This
accessible book provides insight into recent exponential advances
in artificial intelligence, tissue regeneration, stem cell
treatment, organ printing, cryopreservation, and genetic therapies
that, for the first time in human history, offer a realistic chance
to solve the problem of the aging of the human body. In this book,
Cordeiro and Wood not only present all the major developments,
initiatives, and ideas for eternal life, they also show why there
are a number of good arguments for seeing death for what it is: the
last undefeated disease. Enter any drugstore or bookstore, and we
confronted with a mountain of nonsense concerning the aging
process. Society seems obsessed with aging. That is why The
Death of Death is such a refreshing delight, able to cut
through the hype and reveal a balanced, authoritative, and lucid
discussion of this controversial topic. It summarizes the
astonishing breakthroughs made recently in revealing how science
may one day conquer the aging process. Michio Kaku, theoretical
physicist and author of The God Equation: The Quest for a
Theory of Everything We are entering a Fantastic
Voyage into life extension, crossing different bridges that
will take us to indefinite life spans. The Death of
Death explains clearly how we might soon reach longevity
escape velocity and live long enough to live forever. Ray Kurzweil,
co-author of Fantastic Voyage: Live Long Enough to Live
Forever and co-founder of Singularity University The Death of
Death is a truly revolutionary book. This is a visionary book that
confronts us with the terrible reality of aging, and its authors
are friends and connoisseurs of the subject. I believe that the
authoritative and exhaustive description of this crusade that José
and David make in this excellent book will accelerate this process.
