Drawing on decades of experience as a public health expert and researcher, Rosling dismantles myths and misconceptions about global trends, revealing a more nuanced and optimistic picture of human progress. Through a series of compelling anecdotes, vivid illustrations, and compelling statistics, he demonstrates that despite the prevailing narrative of doom and gloom, the world is actually becoming a better place in many ways.

From declining rates of poverty and disease to improvements in education and access to clean water, Rosling presents a compelling case for optimism based on hard evidence and rigorous analysis.
