Chapter 4 of The Longevity Paradox takes an in-depth look at centenarians—those who live to 100 or beyond—and examines the factors contributing to their remarkable lifespans. The chapter opens with entertaining stories about these long-lived individuals, some of whom attribute their longevity to habits that contradict conventional health advice, such as drinking alcohol daily or consuming bacon regularly. While these anecdotes may seem surprising, they challenge common beliefs about aging, suggesting…-

Chapter XII - Flying Machines Construction And Operation offers clear, practical guidance for those beginning their journey into the world of aviation. Rather than focusing on dramatic altitude records or sensational feats, this chapter encourages new pilots to prioritize control, safety, and confidence in their first experiences. By drawing on the wisdom of early aviators, the authors present a flight philosophy built around gradual mastery rather than risky experimentation. Most experienced pilots,…-

Chapter XXIII - Flying Machines Construction And Operation presents a nuanced view of how innovation, legality, and accessibility intersect in early aviation history. The Wright brothers, known for their groundbreaking contributions to powered flight, make a significant gesture by allowing amateurs and non-commercial users to adopt their patented technology without restriction. This policy encourages experimentation and scientific exploration, as long as the use remains outside of profit-driven exhibitions…

Chapter II - Flying Machines Construction And Operation explores the early stages of aviation by contrasting two major categories of flight—lighter-than-air balloons and heavier-than-air flying machines. Unlike balloons that drift by gas-based lift, true flying machines rely on forward propulsion and airfoil lift, drawing their core principle from birds. The fascination with avian motion inspired early pioneers to imitate nature's balance between wing surface and body weight through mechanical means. Key…

Chapter 5 of Eat Less, Live Longer? The Science of Hunger and Health explores the discovery of rapamycin and its potential impact on human health and longevity. The chapter begins with the author's journey to Easter Island with three companions, drawn by their interest in the origins of this unique compound. Initially extracted from the island’s soil in 1964 by a Canadian research team, rapamycin was further studied by scientist Suren Sehgal, who identified its antifungal properties. What started as a…

Chapter XIII - Flying Machines Construction And Operation takes a technical yet practical look into the core challenge that defines flight—power. Unlike vehicles on roads that rely on solid ground for support, airships and aeroplanes must expend energy not only to move but also to stay aloft. This need for constant lift transforms the dynamics of power usage, making flight a far more demanding exercise in engineering than land travel. While a car weighing 4,000 pounds can be driven at 50 miles per hour…
