Eric Topol

The New York Times Bestseller 
A Financial Times Book of the Year 2025 
A Guardian Book of the Year 2025 
 
A detailed guide to a revolution transforming human longevity -- a breakthrough moment in the history of human health care -- from one of the most respected medical researchers in the world. 
 
‘Fascinating . . . expertly surveys the latest approaches to managing the diseases and decline associated with ageing.’ 
Financial Times 
 
'Extraordinary . . . a blueprint for the future.' 
Siddhartha Mukherjee, author of The Emperor of All Maladies 
 
'A tour de force.' 
Venki Ramakrishnan, Nobel Laureate and author of Why We Die 
 
In this breakthrough moment in the history of human health care, Super Agers is an evidenced-based guide to the revolution transforming human longevity. From his unique position as a leader overseeing millions in research funding, Dr Topol explains how you can benefit from new the treatments becoming available at a faster rate than ever, and the fundamental reasons — from semaglutides to AI — that we can be confident these breakthroughs will continue. 
 
More than a quarter of the adult population lives with two or more chronic diseases, with that figure increasing to over half in individuals aged 65 and older. Dr Topol explains the power of the new approaches to the worst chronic killers — diabetes/obesity, heart disease, cancer, and neurodegeneration—and how treatments can begin long before middle age, and even long after. In thirty years, we will have five times as many people at least one hundred years old and they will be healthier than ever because of the breakthroughs Super Agers describes. 
 
These remarkable discoveries are deeply inspiring about our human potential. We can now realistically see how we can make considerable headway for preventing age-related diseases and may one day be able to slow the body-wide aging process itself. 
 
'Imagine a world where diseases once thought incurable are treated, where we are healthier for longer. This future is getting close thanks to a radical convergence of AI and bioscience. In this gripping, vitally important and meticulously researched account, Eric Topol reveals the extraordinary breakthroughs that are transforming medicine—and our lives.'

An Evidence-Based Approach to Longevity

Arundhati Roy

‘Heart-smashed’ by the death of the mother she ran from at age eighteen and shaken by the intensity of her response, Arundhati Roy began this remarkable memoir – a soaring account, both intimate and inspiring, of how the author became the person and the writer she is: shaped by circumstance, but above all by her relationship to her extraordinary, singular mother, Mary, who she describes as ‘my shelter and my storm’. 
 
With the scale, sweep and depth of her novels, and the passion, political clarity and warmth of her essays, Mother Mary Comes to Me is an ode to freedom, a tribute to thorny love and savage grace – a memoir like no other.

Chris Isaie

FROM THE STAR OF THE PHENOMENAL NETFLIX SHOW, ADOLESCENCE, COMES A POWERFUL MEMOIR, PACKED WITH INSPIRING STORIES AND HARD-EARNED WISDOM FOR LIFE'S MOST CHALLENGING MOMENTS. 
 
“I wanted to write this book for that person who feels like the world doesn’t understand what life is like for them. I want to be honest about where I have been and how I have got to where I am. Because we can’t be what we can’t see.” – Ashley Walters 
 
'An icon of British and wider Black British culture.' GQ 
 
'A raw and inspiring testament to resilience.' STEVEN BARTLETT 
 
'A deeper truth that speaks to our whole time and culture, and offers us all a way forward.' AFUA HIRSCH 
 
'An important and powerful read.' IAN WRIGHT 
 
From Adolescence and Top Boy to So Solid Crew, Ashley Walters’ explosive on-screen performances and trailblazing music has always explored the same conflicting forces that have governed his life. Born and raised in Peckham, his father in and out of prison, Ashley found the gang culture in inner city London inescapable. At 15, he was stabbed in the neck and left for dead. At 18, he had a gun held to his head as he cradled his newborn son. At 20, he was sentenced to eighteen months in prison. 
 
In this brave and inspiring book, Ashley opens up about his turbulent past. He writes candidly about his battles with identity, addiction, family and fame, and the realisation that, after years of struggle, only he could change his future. 
 
‘Always Winning’ is the framework Ashley developed to turn his life around. Revealed for the first time in this book, explored through powerful stories from his life and career, he shares the principles of this philosophy and shows how anyone can use them to overcome their own challenges, helping them to align a true sense of purpose with inner happiness and personal success and fulfilment.

Always Winning

Susan Lewis

Susan was only nine when her beloved mother died. Not long after, still a tiny child, she was sent away to school. In just one year her entire world had fallen apart. 
 
Struggling to cope so far from home, Susan pushed away the one person she loved best: her father. 
 
Years passed, and the legacy of her tragic childhood remained as poignant as ever. But slowly, Susan understood that to overcome her grief, she had to learn to love - and trust – again. 
 
And so began a journey of reconciliation that would change her world once more… 
 
Praise for Susan Lewis:

A Memoir

Mary Ann Kenny

'A must-read: it hits you right in the heart' Katriona O'Sullivan, author of Poor 
 
'Written in beautifully honest prose, and illuminated throughout by something rare and invaluable: the notes kept by those who dealt with her…. A gripping and important book’ Horatio Clare, The Telegraph 
'Compelling' Irish Examiner 
 
‘A story of tenacity and bravery … visceral’ Irish Times 
---It could happen to anyone. 
 
One fine April day, Mary Ann Kenny’s husband died suddenly while jogging near their family home. In the months that followed, Mary Ann – who had no history of mental illness – began suffering from depression, and then from a terrifying succession of physical and psychological symptoms, including the delusion that her young children had been harmed by her medications. 
 
In this gripping memoir, Mary Ann details her descent into psychosis, her hopitalization, and her inspiring journey back to health and happiness. Drawing on her detailed medical files and on her own recollections, she has created a day-by-day account of what it is like to lose touch with reality while dealing with grief and living in the dreadful knowledge that everything you care about in life is under threat. And The Episode tells the inspiring story of how Mary Ann recovered from her illness, came to terms with her trauma, and spoke truth to the health service about the limitations of medical psychiatry. It reminds us that anyone could end up in Mary Ann’s situation, while also showing that recovery and happiness are possible even after severe mental illness. 
 
Written with the pace of a thriller and the insight of a great psychological novel, The Episode is a brilliant act of personal reclamation and an essential read for anyone who is interested in the workings of the mind. 
 
--- ‘Powerful’ Brendan O’Connor, RTÉ Radio 1

A True Story of Loss, Madness and Healing

Steven Lovatt

A moving, powerful quest for belonging through the forsaken landscapes of Britain 
 
When Steven Lovatt’s grandmother died, he lost not only a beloved family member but also his last link to the way of life she had represented: rooted in place, socially democratic, ecologically rich. Cut loose from the past and confronted with a present missing even the birds of his childhood, Steven’s mind cracked. 
 
Drawing on field work, local library archives and oral history, as well as dreams, diaries and visions, Enchanted Ground charts a fractured course from breakdown to belonging. For if he is to survive, Steven realises he must set out, like a pilgrim, across the motorways and monoculture wastes of Britain in search of enchanted ground – and those who have begun to rebuild it.

Growing Roots in a Broken World

Esther Ghey

On 11 February 2023, 16-year-old Brianna Ghey was lured to a local park where she was tragically murdered. Amidst the international outpouring of outrage, anguish and displays of support, her usually shy and private mother, Esther, came to reflect on how she could redirect her personal grief into campaigning to help others and to create a lasting legacy for her child. A clarion call for change, this is an essential and urgent read about finding threads of hope in the darkest of times and uniting to protect our young people from the threats they face in an increasingly unchecked digital world.

Devi Sridhar

Have you ever questioned why, despite the avalanche of self-help books and optimization hacks, we remain embroiled in multiple global health crises? Populations worldwide are gaining life-shortening excess weight (even in poorer countries), and water contamination is rampant (even in richer countries). In such dire circumstances, a gratitude journal won’t help. 
 
The stark reality is that we’ve been sold a monumental lie. The obsession with individual health optimization has distracted us from the real game-changer: holding governments accountable for policies that can significantly extend our lifespans. How Not to Die (Too Soon) is a vital, transformative guide that shifts the focus from individual responsibility to societal accountability. It’s time to demand the changes that will save lives.

Frances Ryan

'No one really talks about it. No one really talks about what it is to be a disabled woman, especially a young one … To navigate all the standard parts of life - exams, careers, dating - but with a body that is different from everyone else’s.' 
 
Almost one in four women in the UK have some sort of disability, yet this subject is too often shrouded in silence and stereotypes. Who Wants Normal? by the award-winning journalist and author Frances Ryan is a game-changing take on disability and feminism. 
 
Part memoir, part manifesto, it explores six facets of life: education, careers, health, body image, relationships and representation, as well as how to survive life’s bumps in the road. It draws on Frances’s own experience as well as her interviews with over fifty of Britain’s best-known women and non-binary people with mental and physical health conditions, including Jameela Jamil, Sophie Morgan, Ruth Madeley, Nikki Fox, Rosie Jones, Fearne Cotton, Emma Barnett, Ellie Goldstein and Katie Piper. 
 
Who Wants Normal? lifts the lid on and redefines what it means to be a disabled woman in Britain today. It offers support, inspiration and a sense of solidarity to the many women with disabilities and long-term health conditions – as well as opening the eyes of anyone wanting to better understand life with a disability.

Helen L. Ball

The definitive new science and data-led guide on baby sleep for new parents from director of the University Durham Sleep & Infancy Centre, Professor Helen L. Ball. 
 
‘As compassionate as it is clinically rigorous . . . a myth-busting, parent-respecting, evidence-soaked call to rethink everything we think we know about infant sleep.’ 
Guddi Singh, British Medical Journal 
 
‘Clearly written and engaging, with really useful suggestions that will help manage parents’ expectations and anxiety, How Babies Sleep is a must-read for anybody who wants to understand the first 365 days of a human life.’ 
Russell Foster, neuroscientist and Sunday Times-bestselling author of Life Time 
 
--- 
 
How babies sleep is both exceedingly simple and excruciatingly complex. It is simple because it is based on a few straightforward biological principles that affect all babies the world over. It is complex because we have made it so. 
 
Over the past century and a half, we have tried to manipulate baby sleep to fit with the rapidly changing nature of adult lives. The mismatch we have created with our babies’ biology is framed as ‘baby sleep problems’, and infants are often ‘treated’ using behavioural and clinical interventions. But it is not baby sleep that needs fixing – only our understanding of it. 
 
In How Babies Sleep, pioneering and award-winning infant sleep researcher Professor Helen Ball brings together cutting-edge science, anthropological insight and practical advice to provide parents with everything they need to help them confidently – and sanely – navigate the first 365 night-times with a new baby. It will teach you how to harmonise your needs with those of your infant, and empower you to reject approaches that make you uncomfortable and experiment with strategies that work for you and your family.

‘Finally — the baby sleep book all new parents actually need.’ Amanda Ruggeri, award-winning science and parenting journalist 
 
‘An accessible, intelligent account of the issues around baby sleep.’ Sue Gerhardt, psychotherapist and author of Why Love Matters 
 
'The most important voice we have to bring clarity.’ Greer Kirshenbaum, neuroscientist, doula, and author of The Nurture Revolution

We think of babyhood and old age as polar opposites on the spectrum of life. Yet they are profoundly linked. Our early experiences set us up for a lifetime of good mental and physical health, or for future health challenges. 
 
1,001 Days will explore the vital and often overlooked factors that determine our lifelong health. Delving into the latest research in the fields of medicine, neuroscience and psychobiology, acclaimed psychotherapist and author Sue Gerhardt explains how many of the most common illnesses affecting our society today – from type 2 diabetes to cardiovascular disease, depression and dementia – have their roots in pre- and post-natal childhood development. 
 
She challenges the political and cultural assumptions that hinder us from acting on what science is telling us – for example, that ill health is often seen as a result of wrong ‘lifestyle’ choices. The evidence she brings to light could change the way we approach illness, prevention, screening and cure within our healthcare and wider social systems. 
 
There is no simple cause and effect that explains an individual’s health outcomes. But in learning about the ways your childhood continues to shape your health today, you can feel empowered to seek the help you need.

How Our First Years Shape Our Lifelong Health

Caroline Elton

Meet Lionel, Caroline’s older brother. Born in the late 1940s, when little was known about autism, Lionel was considered a peculiarity. From the beginning, he was a silent child, oblivious to the people around him and intent only on playing with his toy trucks. By the time he turned four, doctors declared him ineducable and advised that he be institutionalised – a shockingly standard practise at the time. 
 
No one could have predicted that Lionel would go onto music college and find his place in the world. With the help of his mother – who refused to send him away – Lionel lived a life that was certainly unusual but never dull. He had perfect pitch, could multiply three-figure numbers in his head, or work out which day of the week you were born on, the instant you told him your birthday. 
 
But when Lionel’s mother dies, and shortly after he is diagnosed with cancer, his two sisters struggle to fill the void – to become Lionel’s caretaker and support him as they had promised their mother. Looking After is both a portrait of one autistic man's remarkable life, and a heart-rending story of how one family learnt to care for each other, to deal with loss and to be by each other’s side at the very end.

Lindsey Burrow

The life-affirming, No.1 bestselling memoir of Lindsey Burrow, the working mother of three young children who has inspired the nation through her selfless commitment to husband Rob Burrow (CBE), the rugby league legend she cared for throughout his heroic battle with motor neurone disease (MND). 
 
A Pride of Britain Award Winner 
 
Take Care: A Memoir of Love, Family & Never Giving Up explores the deepest reserves of resilience, personal sacrifice and hope that Lindsey Burrow exhibited on a daily basis when her family’s life was upended by the terminal MND diagnosis. Juggling her day job for the NHS as a physiotherapist, with round-the-clock care for Rob, who couldn’t move or talk, and could only eat with Lindsey’s assistance, she simultaneously raised her brilliant young family and helped to raise awareness for MND. The efforts of Rob, Lindsey and Kevin Sinfield have raised over £15 million for charity. 
 
In 2024, Lindsey presented her debut ITV1 documentary, ‘Who Cares for Our Carers?’ which highlighted the emotional and practical hardships faced by thousands of her fellow unpaid carers, whose hidden work is worth an estimated £162bn a year in the UK, the equivalent of another NHS. Told in Lindsey’s characteristically humble, charming and inspirational style, Take Care explores her life and shares her honest experiences of finding strength in the good and the bad times, in order to offer readers and families hope to overcome challenges in their own lives. The book sheds a light on the many families across the UK who care for their loved ones with little support. Finally, the book is a rousing call to action, for us all as a society to take better care of one another.

John Davidson

THE MUST-READ MEMOIR BEHIND THE MAJOR BAFTA AWARD-WINNING FILM, I SWEAR, STARRING ROBERT ARAMAYO. From the remarkable Scottish campaigner, this is the powerful and moving autobiography offering extraordinary insight into what it is like to live with a severe form of Tourette's Syndrome. 
 
'Funny and heartfelt ... this skilfully told tale deserves praise for how it lets us non-sweary people see inside the ordinary, albeit anxious, mind of someone with Tourette syndrome.' THE TIMES 
 
Born in the 1970s on the Scottish Borders, John’s was ten when his tics first arrived, as if from nowhere. Previously a happy, popular, football-mad boy he was labelled disruptive, rude, and even mad. As his condition progressed, from blinks and jerks to involuntary rude and obscene shouting, John was bullied, rejected - alienated from his family and a society that had no idea what to make of him. 
 
Hospitalized and drugged for months, it was only an extraordinary and transformative friendship, and John’s dogged optimism, that turned his life around, making I Swear an inspirational story of triumph over adversity. 
 
Through John’s eyes, we see Tourette’s not just as a medical condition, but as a lens through which we can all better understand the importance of human connection. And how essential, as well as ultimately rewarding, it can be to keep going and never give up.'An astonishing tale about an amazing man.' - JOJO MOYES, author of Me Before You and Someone Else's Shoes 
 
'This superb book is an engaging and fascinating account of what it's like to live with Tourette's.' DAILY MAIL 
 
'Brave, shocking, funny and moving ... This is a really important book.' RACHEL JOYCE, bestselling author of The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry and The Homemade God

Anxiety is a normal and sometimes healthy process, but in a world that feels increasingly unsafe and unpredictable, many of us find ourselves in its grip far more than is comfortable or truly necessary. If you subconsciously believe that worrying or investing in your anxiety will keep you safe, it is easy to get unwittingly hooked on it. To break free of anxiety, you must break free from the underlying beliefs that you cling to and the cyclical thoughts that perpetuate it. Addicted to Anxiety will help you understand anxiety from the perspective of addiction, identifying your triggers and learning how to break your habits and actively replace them with new, more productive behaviours. It will put the power back in your own hands to live a calmer and less anxious life.

Addicted to Anxiety

Rangan Chatterjee

The Instant No.1 Bestseller 
 
'Even your first taste of this book’s practical, inviting and effective strategies for happiness will make you glad you did.' - from the foreword by Oliver Burkeman, author of Four Thousand Weeks 
 
Happiness is a practice, not a destination. We often treat happiness as something to pursue, a reward we’ll reach once life is finally in order. But what if happiness is not an outcome, but a practice - the foundation that shapes how we meet each moment? 
 
Drawing on over twenty years as a doctor, Dr Rangan Chatterjee has seen that motivation and willpower rarely sustain us for long. True wellbeing only becomes possible when we learn to nurture what he calls core happiness - a steadier, more resilient form of joy that doesn’t depend on circumstances. 
 
In Happy Mind, Happy Life, Dr Chatterjee blends science, case studies, and simple exercises to show how small, daily choices ripple into lasting change. Through ten simple but profound ways, you’ll explore how to: 
<ul><li>Treat yourself with compassion and respect</li><li>Redesign your relationship with technology</li><li>Respond to criticism without being derailed</li></ul> 
This is not a manual for quick fixes, but an invitation to reimagine how you live - so that health, clarity, and contentment flow naturally into your days.

How To Build a Body That Lasts

Exercises for Longevity, Strength and Health

Joseph Jebelli

We are constantly told to make the most of our time. Stop procrastinating. Optimise. To be happy, creative and successful requires discipline and focus. The most important thing is to be efficient with every precious hour. But when we let our brains rest, and our minds wander, something magical happens: the brain’s ’default network’ switches on, and suddenly we are able to think in completely new ways. 
 
Blending science and personal stories with practical tips, Dr Joseph Jebelli reveals how neuroscience is solving the mystery of the brain at rest, with profound implications for intelligence, creativity and even life expectancy. 
 
If we dare to break the taboo surrounding rest, we will find that long baths, walks in nature, meditation and simple daydreaming are the key to a happier, healthier – and ironically, more productive – life.

My Brain Isn’t Broken (and Neither Is Yours)

Elif Shafak

Postnatal depression affects millions of new mothers every year, and – like most of its victims – Elif Shafak never expected to be one of them. But after the birth of her first child in 2006, the internationally bestselling Turkish author remembers how, ‘for the first time in my adult life... words wouldn't speak to me’. 
 
As her despair finally eased, Shafak sought to resuscitate her writing life by chronicling her own experiences. In her beautiful and intimate memoir, she reveals how she struggled to overcome her depression and how literature provided the salvation she so desperately needed.

On Motherhood and Writing

Kathryn Faulke

Kate never expected to become a home care worker. But when she left her senior role in the NHS, burnt-out and disheartened, she thought caring for people in their own homes would be a simpler job. Despite being determined not to become too involved with her 'customers', she soon found herself developing firm friendships, forging deep connections and bearing witness to the extraordinary drama to be found in ordinary lives. 
 
With energy, compassion and clarity, her memoir gives an astonishing insight into this unsung - and often maligned - profession, and into the hidden lives of the housebound and infirm. From Beryl who screams like a banshee whenever Kate tries to wash her, but collapses in giggles when her toes are tickled, to bawdy Mr Radbert who 'promised to give me his car when he can remember where he left it'. 
 
Every Kind of People is clear-eyed about the challenges facing the NHS and the care system. But it is above all a celebration of humanity and of the life-changing impact of caring, on those who offer it and those who receive it.

How to Boost Your Mood and Health from the Inside Out

The Life-Changing Science of Eating for Your Second Brain

James Rebanks

One afternoon many years ago, James Rebanks met an old woman on a remote Norwegian island. She lived and worked alone on a tiny rocky outcrop, caring for wild ducks and gathering their down. Hers was a centuries-old trade that had once made men and women rich, but had long been in decline. Still, somehow, she seemed to be hanging on. 
 
Back at home, Rebanks couldn’t stop thinking about the woman on the rocks. She was fierce and otherworldly – and yet strangely familiar. Years passed. Then, one day, he wrote her a letter, asking if he could return. Bring work clothes, she replied, and good boots, and come quickly: her health was failing. And so he travelled to the edge of the Arctic to witness her last season on the island. 
 
This is the story of that season. It is the story of a unique and ancient landscape, and of the woman who brought it back to life. It traces the pattern of her work from the rough, isolated toil of bitter winter, to the elation of the endless summer light, when the birds leave behind their precious down for gathering, like feathered gold. 
 
Slowly, Rebanks begins to understand that this woman and her world are not what he had previously thought. What began as a journey of escape becomes an extraordinary lesson in self-knowledge, forgiveness and how to make lasting change.
