3.5/5

Audiobook narrated by Joe Leat.

I went into this book expecting a book with quirky facts about various animals and instead got a book about aging and the factors affecting it. NB: Read the blurb before commencing a book.

- Despite being different to what I expected, this book was pretty interesting and well researched. The author talks about a wide range of studies, cases and methods for determining how different factors affect aging in both animals and humans and you can tell that lots of effort and research has gone into this book.

- The narrator of the audiobook (English translation) did an excellent job of maintaining an engaging and amusing tone andade the subject matter easier to enjoy.

If you like lay science books, especially about human physiology then give Jellyfish Age Backwards a go.
