If you had to pack a huge container full of everything you will need in a lifetime, what would you take with you? A human lifespan is, on average, 79 years. In that time a person living in the UK will eat on average 479 fish fingers, take 7163 baths, shed 121 pints of tears, dream 104,390 dreams, go through 1033 chickens, buy 733 balloons and spend £658 on Christmas crackers. The average man will celebrate 76 birthdays, owns 15 ties and will spend a total of 144 days standing in front of a mirror shaving. The average woman will celebrate 81 birthdays, owns between 40 and 50 pairs of shoes and will spend nearly two years in round the clock washing, styling and restyling her hair. And who would have thought that in the UK the Tooth Fairy currently has a turnover of more than£20 million? This endlessly surprising and diverting almanac approaches each essential item from a surprising angle to tell the untold stories behind the everyday things we take for granted and builds up a fascinating picture of the numbers that make up a human life.

“Offers a useful reminder of the role of modern science in fundamentally transforming all of our lives.” —President Barack Obama (on Twitter) “An important book.” —Steven Pinker, The New York Times Book Review The surprising and important story of how humans gained what amounts to an extra life, from the bestselling author of How We Got to Now and Where Good Ideas Come From In 1920, at the end of the last major pandemic, global life expectancy was just over forty years. Today, in many parts of the world, human beings can expect to live more than eighty years. As a species we have doubled our life expectancy in just one century. There are few measures of human progress more astonishing than this increased longevity. Extra Life is Steven Johnson’s attempt to understand where that progress came from, telling the epic story of one of humanity’s greatest achievements. How many of those extra years came from vaccines, or the decrease in famines, or seatbelts? What are the forces that now keep us alive longer? Behind each breakthrough lies an inspiring story of cooperative innovation, of brilliant thinkers bolstered by strong systems of public support and collaborative networks, and of dedicated activists fighting for meaningful reform. But for all its focus on positive change, this book is also a reminder that meaningful gaps in life expectancy still exist, and that new threats loom on the horizon, as the COVID-19 pandemic has made clear. How do we avoid decreases in life expectancy as our public health systems face unprecedented challenges? What current technologies or interventions that could reduce the impact of future crises are we somehow ignoring? A study in how meaningful change happens in society, Extra Life celebrates the enduring power of common goals and public resources, and the heroes of public health and medicine too often ignored in popular accounts of our history. This is the sweeping story of a revolution with immense public and personal consequences: the doubling of the human life span.
