'A hopeful book about the potential for human progress when we work off facts rather than our inherent biases.' BARACK OBAMATimely, short and essential, FACTFULNESS reveals the power of facts in a post-truth world, by late international sensation Hans Rosling ('a true inspiration' - Bill Gates) and his long-term collaborators Ola and Anna.

The author renowned for being a Brian Cox or Atul Gawande-like figure in the field of statistics completed this statement on the post-truth power of facts with his son and daughter-in-law prior to his death in 2017, revealing here the ten instincts that lead the public to misinterpret urgent global realities. Illustrated edition.

I recommend starting 2021 with the late Hans Rosling's book, Factfulness - for incontrovertible evidence of "the secret, silent miracle of human progress."
