Outlive

By Peter Attia with Bill Gifford

About Outlive

Peter Attia, writing with Bill Gifford, examines longevity through the goal of preserving health and function over time. The book discusses prevention, exercise, nutrition, sleep, and emotional health, encouraging readers to think about the quality as well as the length of life.

Why I include it

I include this for its focus on healthspan and the ability to keep doing meaningful things as we age. It belongs beside the biology-focused books as a different perspective on long-term health.
