100 Plus: How the Coming Age of Longevity Will Change Everything, From Careers and Relationships to Family and Faith
Description
Drawing on advances in biotechnology, medicine, and genetics, this provocative book explores a future in which living past 100 becomes increasingly common. It examines how longer lifespans could transform careers, education, marriage, parenting, retirement, family structures, and religious beliefs. Alongside the opportunities of extended health and productivity, it considers the ethical, economic, and social challenges that accompany radical longevity. Accessible and forward-looking, the book invites readers to rethink what it means to age—and how society must prepare for lives that may unfold across a century or more.
