When we reflect on the current state of the world, it seems to us that the situation is getting worse every year. Natural disasters are claiming more and more lives, populations of rare, endangered species are dwindling before our eyes, and the proportion of the world's population living in poverty is steadily growing. In fact, the opposite is true. In his book "Factfulness: Ten Misconceptions About the World—and Why It's Not as Bad as It Seems," scientist, physician, lecturer, and co-founder of Doctors Without Borders Sweden, Hans Rosling, not only discusses the most common mistakes our brains make when trying to assess global changes but also provides tools to help us learn to correctly see and understand the big picture, even if we don't have time to analyze the small details.
