"Lifespan is not a random biological expiration date, but a finely tuned evolutionary strategy where metabolism, environment, and genetics dictate the speed at which an organism experiences reality."
As humans, we often view our 80-year lifespan as the "default" or the standard. But as this book shows, we are both the rule and the exception. We are the only species that has successfully used technology and social culture to artificially stretch our biological clock. We have taken the "Domestic Promise" we gave to our dogs and cats and applied it to ourselves.
But there is a humbling lesson in the shadow of the Greenland Shark and the Immortal Jellyfish. We are part of a massive, interconnected tapestry of time. Every creature has its "Pulse." To the Mayfly, its 24 hours is as rich and full as our century. To the "Immortal" Jellyfish, time is a loop rather than a line.
