Overview of Progress

In "Progress," Johan Norberg demolishes pessimism with hard data, showing how humanity has dramatically reduced poverty, violence, and hunger. The Economist called it "a blast of good sense" - a refreshing antidote to doomsday narratives about our collective future.

When the World Keeps Getting Better But Nobody Believes It

Here's a startling fact: if you were born in 1900, you had a fifty-fifty chance of dying before your fifth birthday. Your mother might not survive childbirth. Your family likely lived on less than a dollar a day. You'd never learn to read, never see a doctor, and if you were female, you'd have no legal rights whatsoever. Fast forward to today, and every single one of these horrors has been dramatically reversed. Yet ask anyone on the street, and they'll tell you the world is falling apart. This gap between reality and perception forms one of the most fascinating puzzles of our time. Why, in the midst of humanity's greatest triumph, do we remain convinced we're heading toward catastrophe?
