Factfulness: Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World – And Why Things Are Better Than You Think

When asked simple questions about global trends, we systematically get the answers wrong—so wrong that a chimpanzee choosing randomly would outperform journalists, Nobel laureates, and investment bankers. Professor Hans Rosling reveals the ten instincts that distort our perspective. The world is in a much better state than we think, but constant worry prevents us from focusing on real threats. Factfulness is an inspiring, revelatory book filled with anecdotes that will change the way you see the world.
