“This is a book about the world and how it really is. It is also a book about you, and why you (and almost everyone I have ever met) do not see the world as it really is. It is about what you can do about it, and how this will make you feel more positive, less stressed, and more hopeful as you walk out of the circus tent and back into the world. So, if you are more interested in being right than in continuing to live in your bubble; if you are willing to change your world view; if you are ready for critical thinking to replace instinctive reaction; and if you are feeling humble, curious, and ready to be amazed, then please read on.”
- From the introduction of Factfulnes
