‘Hugely, highly and happily recommended’
Stephen Fry

‘You should read Humankind. You’ll learn a lot (I did) and you’ll have good reason to feel better about the human race’
Tim Harford

‘The book we need right now’
Daily Telegraph

'Made me see humanity from a fresh perspective'
Yuval Noah Harari

It’s a belief that unites the left and right, psychologists and philosophers, writers and historians. It drives the headlines that surround us and the laws that touch our lives. From Machiavelli to Hobbes, Freud to Dawkins, the roots of this belief have sunk deep into Western thought. Human beings, we’re taught, are by nature selfish and governed by self-interest.

Humankind makes a new argument: that it is realistic, as well as revolutionary, to assume that people are good. The instinct to cooperate rather than compete, trust rather than distrust, has an evolutionary basis going right back to the beginning of Homo sapiens. By thinking the worst of others, we bring out the worst in our politics and economics too.

In this major book, internationally bestselling author Rutger Bregman takes some of the world’s most famous studies and events and reframes them, providing a new perspective on the last 200,000 years of human history. From the real-life Lord of the Flies to the Blitz, a Siberian fox farm to an infamous New York murder, Stanley Milgram’s Yale shock machine to the Stanford prison experiment, Bregman shows how believing in human kindness and altruism can be a new way to think – and act as the foundation for achieving true change in our society.

It is time for a new view of human nature.©2020 Rutger Bregman (P)2020 Bloomsbury Publishing Plc Philosophie Ökonomie

A very insightful and positive book! I love how the author takes us on a journey, explaining the course of his research step by steps. Dismantling previous experiments on human behaviors that were falsified and counterbalancing with trustworthy evidences.

Fantastic Eye-opening book!

The author did an excellent job in putting together the newest insights from all different fields of science to undermine his point of view; humans are basically kind. He did it in a very entertaining and at the same time inspiring way. I really have to rethink a lot of information I learned in my study of psychology. Looking at the human kind from his point of view, certainly will raise my quality of life!

Soulfood for Machiavellians

I liked that Rutger is backing up his hypothesis with lots of facts from past and present. He's shaping a view on humanity that I find more relatable and healthier than the mainstream homo economicus view.

A great opposition to the homo economicus

It's great to feel good, that's what this book tells us in a very convincing way! :)

Love it

very interesting read that challenges conventional wisdom and especially long standing "research" that is shown in a new light.

eye opening

Puts things into perspective and helps to stay sane in a media/social environment pushing the message that people are bad and the world is bad. Especially liked the debunking of ancient studies (Stanford prison experiment, Milgram experiment)

A positive book

Great insight, facts and perspectives into the human nature
A more neutral and less empathetic voice would make it even better

Provoking and interesting

great book with a positive view on humanity. it interprets several known studies that I had previously read about in a more positive light, very eye opening! And the speaking was perfect - clear pronunciation and a pleasant voice.

Great Book!

As a positivist it was a delightful read with many valuable insights very well backed by science. Also a good reader.

Great book
