Books

A running record of what I've read. While I've done my best to reconstruct the heavy reading of my first two decades from memory, this list is not exhaustive. For a different (though admittedly less complete) view, you can also check out my goodreads profile.

2026 - This Year

Outlive, P. Attia, 5, Expert advice on how to stay healthy into middle and old age. Technical but approachable for most, comprehensive (lengthy but appropriately so,) and engaging. Much needed reading for our age - groundbreaking in a way. First half is contextual and helps reframe a half century or more of misinformation (science, after all, progresses). Covers health span (as opposed to lifespan), prevention vs. treatment (and the concept of Medicine 3.0), main mortalities and risks associated with aging, and the challenge of aging beyond our evolutional preset. Second half is more specific advice on training/exercise, diet and nutrition, and sleep.
