About this product

Product Information

Shortlisted for the BBC Samuel Johnson Prize for Non-fiction 2011. Life is on the up. We are wealthier, healthier, happier, kinder, cleaner, more peaceful, more equal and longer-lived than any previous generation. Thanks to the unique human habits of exchange and specialisation, our species has found innovative solutions to every obstacle it has faced so far. In 'The Rational Optimist', acclaimed science writer Matt Ridley comprehensively refutes the doom-mongers of our time, and reaches back into the past to give a rational explanation for why we can - and will - overcome the challenges of the future, such as climate change and the population boom. Bold and controversial, it is a brilliantly confident assertion that the 21st century will be the best for humankind yet.

    The book arrived in good condition due to good packaging by the seller and arrived in good time. It was described accurately in the eBay advertisement and while it is not quite as comprehensive as some other books, it is still a good read and decent value for money. All communication and other dealings went well and there were no difficulties of any kind. I can recommend the seller without hesitation. Sincerest thanks to all who helped.

    A bright world future

    Throughout history there has never been a time when there is any shortage of people predicting a disaster awaiting the world at some point in the future. None of the prophets of doom are ever held to account when their gloomy predictions fail to come true, which is nearly always. So-called "scientists" are still doing it today and people are falling over each other to believe their doom-laden view of the world, which will ultimately be proved as wrong as all the others. This is a "glass half-full" look at the world. All indications are that the world is on course for a happy, healthy and prosperous future. Poverty and hunger are on a downward spiral and the human race is doing what it has always done best: adapting to change and taking advantage of it. but the prophets of doom are still ...
