Title: Humanity - An Optimistic Story - Rutger Bregman - book
Summary :
"Evil is powerful, but good is more widespread." Against the prevailing gloom, a book that reconciles us with humanity.
This book presents a radical idea. It's an idea that has anguished the powerful for centuries. An idea that religions and ideologies have fought against. An idea that the media rarely discusses and that history seems to constantly refute. Yet it's an idea that finds its foundations in virtually every field of science. An idea demonstrated by evolution and confirmed by everyday life. An idea so intimately linked to human nature that we often don't even pay attention to it anymore. If we had the courage to take it seriously, it would be obvious to us that this idea can spark a revolution. It can turn society upside down. The idea in question? Most people are good. Captivating and inspiring, a tremendous global success, Humanity opens new horizons with humor, seriousness and pedagogy.
Historian, journalist for the online magazine From Correspondent , Rutger Bregman is the author of the worldwide bestseller Realistic Utopias , translated into more than thirty countries.
