| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | Factfulness: the stress-reducing habit of only carrying opinions for which you have strong supporting facts.<br/>When asked simple questions about global trends - what percentage of people around the world are living in poverty; why the global population is increasing; how many girls finish school - we systematically get the answers wrong. So wrong that a chimpanzee choosing answers at random will consistently outguess journalist, Nobel laureates and investment bankers.<br/>In Factfulness, Professor of International Health and global TED phenomenon Hans Rosling, together with his two long-time collaborators Anna and Ola, offers a radical new explanation of why this happens, and reveals the ten instincts that distort our perspective.<br/>In turns out that the world, for all its imperfections, is in a much better state than we might think. But when we worry about everything all the time instead of embracing a world view based on facts, we can lose our ability to focus on the things that threaten us most.<br/>Inspiring and revelatory, filled with lively anecdotes and moving stories, Factfulness is an urgent and essential book that will change the way you see the world. |
