Aging is a natural phenomenon that is peculiar to all living things. However, accumulating findings indicate that senescence could be postponed or prevented by certain approaches. Substantial evidence has emerged supporting the possibility of radical human health and lifespan extension, in particular through pharmacological modulation of aging.

A brief history of artificial intelligence: What It Is, Where We Are, and Where We Are Going by Michael Wooldridge (2022)
From Oxford’s leading AI researcher comes a fun and accessible tour through the history and future of one of the most cutting edge and misunderstood field in science: Artificial Intelligence. The somewhat ill-defined long-term aim of AI is to build machines that are conscious, self-aware, and sentient; machines capable of the kind of intelligent autonomous action that currently only people are capable of.

An Introduction to Formal Language Theory that Integrates Experimentation and Proof by STOUGHTON (2005)
Since the 1930s, the subject of formal language theory, also known as au- tomata theory, has been developed by computer scientists, linguists and mathematicians. (Formal) Languages are set of strings over finite sets of symbols, called alphabets, and various ways of describing such languages have been developed and studied, including regular expressions (which “generate” languages), finite automata (which “accept” languages), grammars (which “generate” languages) and Turing machines (which “accept” languages).

A primer on pseudorandom generators by Oded Goldreich (2010)
This introduction to the theory of pseudorandomness offers a fresh perspective on the concept of randomness, rooted in a complexity-theoretic approach. At its core, this approach posits that a distribution is considered random (or pseudorandom) if no efficient procedure can distinguish it from the uniform distribution.

An introduction to the mathematics of money by David Lovelock (2007)
This undergraduate textbook explores fundamental aspects of personal savings and investing, offering a well-balanced blend of mathematical rigor and economic intuition. Rather than assuming elementary real analysis, the book employs routine financial calculations as both motivation and the foundation for elementary real analysis tools.
