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

by Anna Rosling Rönnlund, Ola Rosling, Hans Rosling
$15.90

Challenge biases, embrace progress through facts.

"Factfulness" feels like a refreshing dose of clarity in a world where pessimism often takes the front seat. Hans Rosling's expertise in public health shines through as he dismantles misconceptions with hard data, making you question the lenses through which you view global progress. It's a book that doesn't just lay out the facts but teaches you how to think differently about them. If you ever feel overwhelmed by the doom and gloom of the news, this book could be the optimistic yet realistic perspective you need.

  • Financial Times Business Book of the Year Nominee for Longlist (2018)
  • Goodreads Choice Award Nominee for Nonfiction (2018)
