The Longevity Equation

As the CEO and founder of the Institute for Human Optimization, located just outside Washington, D.C., Dr. Anil Bajath (MD, MBA, IFMCP, ABAARM, MIfHI) has dedicated his life to helping individuals live healthier for longer by improving our "health span" not simply our "life span." His book addresses the genomic factors that determine our longevity and well-being. In doing so, he created a biological equation that turns the concept of longevity on its head and spotlights cutting-edge biotech tools to hack your health.

Talibanland: Paradise Under the Shadow of Sabers

Dr. Georgi Asatryan's "Talibandland" is perhaps one of the most comprehensive manuscripts on the nature of tribal society in Afghanistan and the rise of the Taliban in the modern era. Part I describes in detail the social structure and social forces that have always been the engine of processes in this country. Part II of the book analyzes two diametrically opposed phenomena of the modern world, terror and freedom, as they collided in the graveyard of empires. He calls the current cadence Talibanland.
