What a fascinating episode. Dr. Mark Ryall explains his book, a fiction, Age De-coded, which is about genetic engineering technology and takes place in the future. Mark says it's not "fantasy" science fiction, rather it is speculative science fiction based in the period of 2053 to 2256.
When asked what inspired him to write this book, Mark says "well, I'm getting older". Also, being an athlete, he says he realizes how you do slow down as you age. He was reading an article about genetic engineering and this is what led him to write this book.
We discussed the pluses and minuses of genetic engineering and choosing to be age de-coded and not get any older, or reverse aging, which is also in his book.
Very intriguing and a must listen to.
You can find Mark on LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook. His book Age De-coded is at most of the major retailers, Amazon, Apple, Kobo, and Indigo.
