This is exactly what a good book should do — entertain you, challenge you, and leave you feeling like the time was genuinely well spent. Venki Ramakrishnan delivers on all three counts. I've already recommended it to everyone in my office. A wonderful purchase.
I picked this up on a recommendation and I'm so glad I did. Venki Ramakrishnan has produced something special here — enjoyable to read while also being genuinely substantive. The kind of book you want to press into people's hands. Five stars without any hesitation at all.
Genuinely one of the best books I've read this year. Venki Ramakrishnan writes with clarity and intelligence and the ideas in Why We Die: the New Science of Ageing and Longevity are both original and immediately relevant. I came away from it thinking differently about something I thought I understood. That doesn't happen often. Highly recommended.
Few books manage to be both intellectually stimulating and genuinely enjoyable to read. Why We Die: the New Science of Ageing and Longevity is one of them. Venki Ramakrishnan's command of the subject is evident throughout and the presentation is superb. Highly, highly recommended.
Outstanding in every respect. Why We Die: the New Science of Ageing and Longevity shows Venki Ramakrishnan at their very best — clear thinking, elegant writing, ideas that linger. I don't give five stars lightly but this absolutely earned them.
