Cracking the Aging Code: The New Science of Growing Old - And What It Means for Staying Young

Cracking the Aging Code: The New Science of Growing Old - And What It Means for Staying Young

Josh Mitteldorf; Dorion Sagan

FLATIRON BOOKS
2017
nidottu
A revolutionary examination of why we age, what it means for our health, and how we just might be able to fight it. In Cracking the Aging Code, theoretical biologist Josh Mitteldorf and award-winning writer and ecological philosopher Dorion Sagan reveal that evolution and aging are even more complex and breathtaking than we originally thought. Using meticulous multidisciplinary science, as well as reviewing the history of our understanding about evolution, this book makes the case that aging is not something that "just happens," nor is it the result of wear and tear or a genetic inevitability. Rather, aging has a fascinating evolutionary purpose: to stabilize populations and ecosystems, which are ever-threatened by cyclic swings that can lead to extinction. When a population grows too fast it can put itself at risk of a wholesale wipeout. Aging has evolved to help us adjust our growth in a sustainable fashion as well as prevent an ecological crisis from starvation, predation, pollution, or infection. This dynamic new understanding of aging is provocative, entertaining, and pioneering, and will challenge the way we understand aging, death, and just what makes us human.

Surveillance State

Surveillance State

Josh Chin; Liza Lin

St Martin's Press
2024
nidottu
Surveillance State tells the gripping, startling, and detailed story of how China’s Communist Party is building a new kind of political control: shaping the will of the people through the sophisticated - and often brutal - harnessing of data. It is a story born in Silicon Valley and America’s “War on Terror,” and now playing out in alarming ways on China’s remote Central Asian frontier. As ethnic minorities in a border region strain against Party control, China’s leaders have built a dystopian police state that keeps millions under the constant gaze of security forces armed with AI. But across the country in the city of Hangzhou, the government is weaving a digital utopia, where technology helps optimise everything from traffic patterns to food safety to emergency response. Award-winning journalists Josh Chin and Liza Lin take readers on a journey through the new world China is building within its borders, and beyond. Telling harrowing stories of the people and families affected by the Party’s ambitions, Surveillance State reveals a future that is already underway - a new society engineered around the power of digital surveillance.

The Difference That Makes the Difference

The Difference That Makes the Difference

Josh Davis

Castle Point Books
2025
nidottu
Neurolinguistic Programming is a process for understanding what makes people tick. When we understand how people think, feel, and act in key situations, we have the raw material with which to make change happen, often quickly and profoundly. In the 1970s, NLP was developed for and by psychotherapists and linguists. When a young lawyer named Greg Prosmushkin discovered NLP, he realised that those concepts - how to communicate with confidence, model excellence, and influence your own and others’ thoughts, feelings, and behaviours - were valuable outside a therapy context. He used what he learned to make huge breakthroughs in his trials and succeed as an entrepreneur. When he met Josh Davis, a PhD who studied psychology and neuroscience and NLP expert, they realised that they needed to make NLP available to everyone. The Difference that Makes the Difference is a result of their breakthrough, and in this book, readers learn to: -Read situations and people -Build self-confidence and rapport -Speak so that people truly hear you -Control your mental and emotional state It’s time to move past simply waiting and wishing for your life to be different - dive into the science behind change to make a real impact in your life, right now.

Ever since cancer invaded his adoptive mother’s life, Brett feels like he’s losing everything, most of all control. To cope, Brett fuels all of his anxieties into epic fantasies, including his intergalactic Kid Condor comic book series, which features food constellations and characters not unlike those in his own life. But lately Brett’s grip on reality has started to lose its hold. The fictions he’s been telling himself - about his unattractive body, the feeling that he’s a burden to his best friend, that he’s too sick to be loved - has consumed him completely, and Brett will do anything to forget about the cosmic-sized hole in his chest, even if it's unhealthy. But when Brett’s journal and deepest insecurities are posted online for the whole school to see, Brett realizes he can no longer avoid the painful truths of his real-life narrative. As his eating disorder escalates, Brett must be honest with the people closest to him, including his new and fierce friend Mallory who seems to know more about Brett’s issues than he does. With their support, he just might find the courage to face the toughest reality of all.

A college grad with the six-figure debt to prove it, Ethan Block views San Francisco as the place to be. Yet his job at hot new dating app DateDate is a far cry from what he envisioned. Instead of making the world a better place, he reviews flagged photo queues, overworked and stressed out. But that's about to change.

One minute, he’s in a windowless office, and the next, he’s in a field of endless grass, gasping for air. When Ethan snaps back to DateDate HQ, he’s convinced a coding issue caused the blip. Except for anyone to believe him, he’ll need evidence. As Ethan embarks on a wild goose chase, moving from dingy startup think tanks to Silicon Valley’s dominant tech conglomerate, it becomes clear that there’s more to DateDate than meets the eye. With the stakes rising, and a new world at risk, Ethan must choose who - and what - he believes in. Adventurous and hyper-timely, Please Report Your Bug Here is an inventive millennial coming-of-age story, a dark exploration of the corruption now synonymous with Big Tech, and, above all, a testament to the power of human connection in our digital era.
