In the near future, the possibility of living up to 150 years transitions from utopia to scientific and social ambition. Advances in biotechnology, nanotechnology, regenerative medicine, and genetic editing have revolutionized the understanding of human aging, igniting ethical, economic, and cultural debates. This book delves into the multifaceted realm of prolonged longevity, from its biological foundations to its societal implications, covering topics such as the impact of extended life on family structures, environmental sustainability, and workforce dynamics. Through an interdisciplinary lens, it invites readers to reflect on the balance between quantity and quality of life, posing a provocative question: are we truly prepared for a society where living 150 years becomes the norm?
