Are you tired of all the doom and gloom? It's time to embrace a new perspective of our world. Enlightenment Now: The Case for Reason, Science, Humanism, and Progress is the instant New York Times bestseller that will challenge your preconceived notions. Bill Gates himself called it his new favorite book of all time! This compelling read by cognitive scientist Steven Pinker showcases how the ideals of the Enlightenment can shape our lives for the better.
Don't let the negative headlines define our reality. Steven Pinker urges us to follow the data and redefine how we perceive the world. In this must-read book, he presents seventy-five jaw-dropping graphs that reveal the astonishing progress humanity has made in terms of life, health, prosperity, safety, peace, knowledge, and happiness. The evidence is undeniable: our lives are getting better, and this improvement is not limited to the Western world.
Are you ready to challenge the status quo? The Enlightenment project has been a driving force behind our progress, but it's under threat. In Enlightenment Now, Steven Pinker exposes the currents of human nature that undermine the principles of reason, science, and humanism. From tribalism to authoritarianism, these forces are dismantling the institutions of liberal democracy and global cooperation.
Now more than ever, we need to defend the Enlightenment ideals that have brought us this far. Pinker combines intellectual depth with literary flair to make a compelling case for reason, science, and humanism. By embracing these ideals, we can confront our problems head-on and ensure a brighter future for humanity. Are you ready to join the movement?
