In questi tempi è importante ricordarsi che conviene sempre approfondire, studiare e pensare con la propria testa, e poco male se si commettono errori.

Ramon van Dam's review of Factfulness

5/5: Reading this has been an amazing experience, truly eye-opening. I can honestly say that this is one of the few books that has single-handedly managed to change my worldview significantly. Rosling and his co-authors explain clearly why most of the "facts" that you think you know about the world are not just plain wrong, but can in fact even be harmful. He backs this up with a lot of data, examples and personal anecdotes, which makes this more than a dry summary of scientific ideas. Add to that the fact that it is very easy to read and you have an important work of non-fiction that might tur...

#Factfulness is an utter crap book. No wonder Gates and other promoted it. The 4 levels of income are a false ground to start its reasoning. Level 4, $32+ an day includes all millionaires and vastly shifts things.

Looking back on it after I read it I think late 2020: yes, vaccines, health and such did improve. Yet health, economy inclusion and many more are not a globally accepted human right. On paper maybe.

Financially wise these days it’s more like do you want Fuggers or Medici back.

#Factfulness... to better understand the world and make better decisions based on #FACTS (!) and not beliefs, one needs good and well explained #data

The biggest problem today, is not #climateChange, it is not #carbonEmissions, it is not #poverty, it is not #hunger, it is not the ongoing #biodiversityGenocide, it is not even #war...

Factfulness - Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World and Why Things Are Better Than You Think is a book written by Hans Rosling, Ola Rosling, and Anna Rosling Rönnlund.

Factfulness is all about knowing the difference between dramatic narrative and actual facts. Everyone gets bombarded with bad news every day making our world seem to keep getting worse. The authors present 10 steps to stay open-minded avoid excessive negativity and search for the real facts. They have also built Gapminder to keep fighting misconceptions by providing reliable data.

In my opinion this is a book that must be read by everyone. The authors display data which proves that our world is becoming a better place year after year. It's also a fact that our world is not perfect but I think it gives hope for a much better future.

Mit beiden Angeboten zeigen Hans #Rosling und seine Familie, wie man mit #Statistiken einen besseren und genaueren Blick auf die Welt bekommt.

@PepijnVemer Op sommige dingen slaat hij inderdaad de plank mis, maar er is eventueel ook een optimismo-boek geschreven over de toekomst, namelijk: #factfulness
Deze schrijver gaat dieper in op "derde werelden" en hoe we het kunnen verbeteren, waar we eigenlijk ook beter af zijn dan we door hebben. Dus snap de uitspraken van Gates half 😅 Dat boek is in ieder geval het leven waard!

Dat global warming een #feit is, is een ding wat zeker is... Wil wel droge voeten houden.
