Reviews
'An exhilarating book. With the combination of arresting stories and striking data, Progress will change your understanding about where we've come from and where we may be heading.', 'In this brightly written, upbeat book, the Swedish author blends facts, anecdotes, and official statistics to describe "humanity's triumph" in achieving the present unparalleled level of global living standards...While acknowledging the mayhem, hunger, and poverty still facing much of the world, the author remains optimistic that human ingenuity will prevail in shaping the future. A refreshingly rosy assessment of how far many of us have come from the days when life was uniformly nasty, brutish, and short.', 'Johan Norberg chronicles the still largely unknown fact that humanity is now healthier, happier, cleaner, cleverer, freer and more peaceful than ever before. He also explains why in this superb book.', 'At a time of profound pessimism, Johan Norberg is refreshingly, but not glibly, optimistic. His excellent book documents the dramatic improvements in people's lives and reminds us of the huge potential for further progress - provided we are open to it.', 'Norberg has a strong case and he makes it with energy and charm. A pertinent book for grumpy times.', 'Excellent...Norberg's book comprehensively documents the myriad ways the state of humanity has vastly improved over the past couple of centuries.', 'Reminds us that headlines are misleading and that history and data show that life has been getting radically better in every way'., 'Norberg entertainingly presents the case for something every expert knows but most newsreaders will find hard to believe: the world is getting richer, healthier, freer, and more peaceful'.
