This is the biggest story of our time. It's about the many ways in which the world is improving, and why we don't believe it
Fraser Nelson, Spectator
Exhilarating, magnificent, uplifting
Economist
Pinker is right. Not just a bit right, but completely, utterly, incontrovertibly right . . . for most people, life is better, even if they don't realise it
Dominic Sandbrook, Daily Mail
A goldmine of startling graphs and killer facts about the way we live now. Everyone should read this book and, just for once, be enthralled by what humankind has achieved
Iain Macwhirter, Herald
Awesome. The confidence with which Pinker tears through the issues that cause such deep anxiety today is compelling
William Davies, Guardian
