Wisdom and lifespan in writers and animals
The piece argues that extending human lifespans would not proportionally increase wisdom, noting experience and sympathy at current life spans. It dismisses old age as not yielding more wisdom and suggests studying the intellectual effects of long life in animals, with dogs and tortoises as examples, referencing White's Selborne about dogs.
