Neben dem Porträt sehr unterschiedlicher Charaktere der linken Szene - von Michael Moore bis zu Naomi Klein - befasst er sich mit Fragen nach politischen Alternativen und untersucht, warum man heute mit rebellischen Äußerungen darauf gefasst sein muss, womöglich einen neuen Trend zu starten.

DNA is "life's blueprint", encoding our genetic inheritance for health and life expectancy. Throughout life, DNA reproduces and replaces itself continually. In optimal conditions, DNA copies itself, making perfect reproductions. But as people age and their DNA is gradually damaged by the environment, diet, and physical and emotional stress, the DNA begins to reproduce poorly and ultimately stops reproducing completely. The result is disease and aging. In this groundbreaking book, Vincent Giampapa, MD, presents a radical new theory on how we age.
