Don't Die

On his final day alive, Scribe convenes a reunion of his closest friends. Though they'd been separated since a harrowing climb on Mt. Kilimanjaro, Scribe hopes the gathering will inspire an actionable plan for humanity in the face of existential challenges. Through a series of conversations, debates, and negotiations, the participants develop a blueprint for the way forward. Writing as "Zero," author Bryan Johnson is an entrepreneur and explorer of the new frontiers of being human. Johnson took stock of his health and realized that a decade of chronic depression and poor cognitive control earlier in life had affected every measure of his well-being. He decided it was time to fight back. In DON'T DIE, Johnson catalogs the social and philosophical strategies necessary for the fight, both individually and as a species. Johnson's controversial ideas and methods have attracted both detractors and devoted followers around the globe. PRAISE FOR DON'T DIE "I finished your book DON'T DIE, and I absolutely loved it!
