Author Explores Quest for Immortality | Literature | English: "Humans have long had dreams of becoming immortal, or of greatly extending their life span. Author Jonathan Weiner has explored the science and pseudoscience of life extension in his book, 'Long for This World: The Strange Science of Immortality.' The writer asks the question if a much longer life is possible - or desirable.
Nothing in nature is immortal, but some clams can live centuries and a tiny freshwater creature called a hydra lives a very long time, at least until its pond dries up.
Can humans achieve the same? Weiner says they've always thought about it."
