Episode #6 - Professor John K. Davis

In this podcast we are not only concerned with how we can prolong human life, but also whether it is a good idea, morally speaking.

Professor John K. Davies of California State University in Fullerton. He has written a book called New Methuselahs - the ethics of life extension published by MIT Press in 2018. In it he defends the conclusion that life extension science should be promoted.

He has been quoted on life extension in interviews with The Daily Beast, Science News, Newsweek, The Financial Times of London, Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, and Allure Magazine, among other places.
