How Long Should the Human Live?

TYSONS CORNER, Va., May 21 /PRNewswire/ -- If each of us could live far past, say, a century, would we? Should we? In "Super-Aging" (published by iUniverse), author Mark Moorstein believes that super-aging has ignited a revolution as more people are surviving longer than ever as they benefit from biotechnology and collective enlightenment, and a major shift in the balance of society can be expected.

"The extension of life beyond a natural period promises not only hope for those with unfinished work, but a source of scientific discovery and economic opportunity," Moorstein said. "In addition to its many positive effects, however, we can expect problems. Super-aging necessarily will burden the productive young and trigger radical changes in science, government, nature, religion and morality."

Quite the controversial issue, "Super-Aging" appeals to a wide audience from healthcare policy makers, social scientists, naturalists, ethicists to nearly everyone who worries about having a long life. Its many issues are broken down into various chapter subjects culminating with the seven moral challenges awaiting the world.  

"The right to immortality therefore begs the very morality of the process some want to unleash: who deserves the super-priorities and super-expenses of super-aging?" Moorstein said.
