Today, we’re diving into Outlive: The Science and Art of Longevity by Dr. Peter Attia. The book’s central argument is that modern medicine—"Medicine 2.0"—excels at fighting "fast death" but fails against the "slow death" of chronic disease. Attia proposes "Medicine 3.0," a proactive strategy focused on extending healthspan—the quality of our years—not just our lifespan. His audience is the lay reader in their thirties to fifties who has watched elders suffer and has no desire to reenact that fate. The book asks: What is the plan to prevent the "Four Horsemen"—heart disease, cancer, neurodegenerative disease, or type 2 diabetes and related metabolic dysfunction—before they take root? Dr. Attia's authority was forged in the trenches: first as a surgical resident at Johns Hopkins frustrated by treating diseases too late; then as a McKinsey risk analyst mastering quantitative systems; and finally as his own patient, when a health crisis at thirty-six forced him to apply that rigor to his own biology.
