Beschreibung
The Art, Science, and Strategy of Longevity examines aging as a biological process, a scientific challenge, and a deeply human experience shaped by time, meaning, and choice.
The book is organized into four parts. It begins with a historical, philosophical, and scientific examination of why aging occurs, tracing how different cultures and disciplines have understood the passage of time, decline, adaptation, and longevity. From there, it turns to foundational domains that influence aging across the lifespan, including movement, nutrition, sleep, stress, emotional life, sexuality, and hormonal change, considering how each has been studied and interpreted within contemporary research.
Later sections address emerging areas of longevity investigation and innovation. These chapters situate topics such as cellular aging, metabolic regulation, pharmacologic research, and non-pharmacological optimization within a broader scientific and conceptual landscape, emphasizing evidence, uncertainty, and ongoing inquiry rather than prescription. The final part looks ahead to regenerative medicine, gene-based approaches, technology, and artificial intelligence, reflecting on how personalization and innovation may reshape how aging is examined and understood.
Throughout, the book emphasizes synthesis over instruction and inquiry over advocacy. It is written for readers interested in the science of aging and the larger questions it raises about human development, responsibility, and the long arc of life.

Über den Autor
Ioulia Howard, MD, is a physician whose career spans cardiac diagnostics, medical technology innovation, and geriatric medicine. Early in her career, she practiced in the field of cardiac imaging and was part of a team that helped establish a company focused on advancing technologies for ophthalmologic surgery. She later stepped away from medicine to raise a family-an experience that deepened her interest in health, aging, and the human experience of wellness. More recently, she returned to her native country to pursue advanced certification in geriatric medicine, with a focus on promoting longevity and improving quality of life for older adults. During this time, she also authored How to Live Long and Well: The Most Important Factors Affecting Health and Life [...]. Howard now focuses on longevity consulting and intentional aging for older adults. Her international perspective, clinical experience, and thoughtful approach allow her to help others navigate aging with purpose and clarity.
