This week: what we know about ageing, whether Google Trends is reliable, how to be cool in a tank top. HOW TO LIVE LONGER A useful summary of the science of ageing; why our chance of dying or getting ill goes up as we get older, and what can be done about it. Among the many interesting bits: mice live longer when they eat less (there's a good case for intermittent fasting, 5:2 diets etc), eunuchs live longer than normal (less clear how to apply this one). Visually and verbally, a great example of science communication. The author has been a practising scientist
