It has the most controversial reviews I’ve ever read. Ordered a copy.

Reading the book _Factfulness_ by Hans Rosling. He founded MSF in Sweden and studies global health. He makes a very compelling case that the world is becoming a better place. Despite the tsunami of bad news stories and shock media. It’s a great read - will add to this once I’ve finished it. 🙂
