Factfulness Ten Reasons Why We’re Wrong About the World— And Why Things Are Better Than You Think by Hans Rosling


If you like books that challenge how you think, this one’s for you. The author say most of us operate upon erroneous assumptions about the world, to our detriment. Not me, I thought. But I was wrong! He then outlines 10 instincts that often steer us wrong, and offers suggestions on how we can understand and overcome them. If you only read the beginning and end, and the summary at the end of each chapter, you’ll be better off. If you read the whole book, you’ll be entertained as well.
