The #1 Wall Street Journal and New York Times bestseller longlisted for the Financial Times/McKinsey Business Book of the Year.

'A hopeful book about the potential for human progress when we work off facts rather than our inherent biases' BARACK OBAMA

Things aren't as bad as we think. Fact.

At last, a book that puts all the bad news in perspective- and brings us surprisingly positive data that show the state of the world has in fact improved over the last 50-200 years. Acclaimed by Bill Gates and Barack Obama, named an Observer 'best brainy book of the decade' - destined to be a perennial bestseller and non-fiction classic. (let's make that a fact!)

'Wonderful . . . a passionate and erudite message that is all more moving because it comes from beyond the grave . . . His knack for presentation and delight in statistics come across on every page. Who else would choose a chart of "guitars per capita" as a proxy for human progress?' FINANCIAL TIMES

'One of the most important books I've ever read - an indispensable guide to thinking clearly about the world.' BILL GATES©2018 Hans Rosling

Kritikerstimmen

A hopeful book about the potential for human progress when we work off facts rather than our inherent biases. (Barack Obama)

One of the most important books I've ever read-an indispensable guide to thinking clearly about the world. (Bill Gates)

A powerful antidote to pervasive pessimism and populist untruths. (Andrew Rawnsley)

Factfulness ... , a light-hearted but data-rich book, calibrates our view of the world and explains how our cognitive processes can lead us astray (Steven Pinker)

Wonderful... a passionate and erudite message that is all the more moving because it comes from beyond the grave... His knack for presentation and delight in statistics come across on every page. Who else would choose a chart of "guitars per capita" as a proxy for human progress?

An immensely cheering book in these anxious times. (Christina Hardyment)

An assault both on ignorance and pessimism . . . helping countries improve their governance and public health and opening them up to the rule of law and market exchange works. But not by some sort of magic. Because we act. And to this, as Rosling argues, we first have to understand the world we live in. (Daniel Finkelstein)

A wonderful guide to an improving world, as well as being a well-stocked source of sound advice as to how to think about factual and statistical claims . . . The book is a pleasure to read - simple, clear, memorable writing - and when you've finished you'll be a lot wiser about the world. You'll also feel rather happier . . . Factfulness - the relaxing peace of mind you get when you have a clearer view of how the world really is . . . I strongly recommend this book. (Tim Harford)

We need more of this way of thinking, both in business and politics. Where better to start than a new book by one of Gates' favourite gurus, the late Swedish statistician Hans Rosling . . . in an age of so-called post-truth, this is a celebration of the all too often repudiated but underlying story of relentless human progress. (Jeremy Warner)

[Bill] Gates had selected the tomes as his favourite summer reads . . . [which included] feel-good non-fiction . . . celebrating technological progress and genius, such as Hans Rosling's Factfulness. (Gillian Tett)

Hans Rosling tells the story of "the secret silent miracle of human progress" as only he can. But Factfulness does much more than that. It also explains why progress is so often secret and silent and teaches readers how to see it clearly. (Melinda Gates)

Three minutes with Hans Rosling will change your mind about the world. (Amy Maxmen)

Thoroughly researched and clearly written . . . this is a measured, objective, and ultimately optimistic account of where we are and how we got here.

Factfulness has the power to shift your entire perspective. If you want to understand the world, read it now! (Rolf Dobelli)

Triumphant.

Ich werde mir noch das Buch kaufen und es noch einmal mit den visuellen Vergleichen lesen. Das ist der einzige Negativpunkt das man diese beim hören nicht sehen kann :(
