A passage from the summary

A summary of Hans Rosling's book on a data-driven worldview. It introduces the instincts that make us see the world as worse than it is (the gap instinct, the negativity instinct, fear, and being fooled by a single number) and explains the habit of seeing reality without panic or blindness: factfulness. The central idea is that something can be both bad and getting better at the same time.
