Helps you reframe your outlook on humanity!
Absolutely loved this book. It’s been half a year since I read this and still reflect on in almost daily. Optimism and seeing the good is not a weakness it is a strength!
Extra shout out to Mari Janatuinen for the astonishing translation that kept me hooked from beginning to end.

I really appreciated the undermining of old negative tropes.
I had heard if some of the examples, but there is some good exposure of fraudulent or near fraudulent stidies out there (e. g., the Stanford Prison experiment or Milgraham's authority study).
The good news examples might have had some more details, but you need to keep the book at a readable length, too.
Burned through this in less than a week. Recommend it very highly

One of the most excellent books I've read in recent memory. Bregman may have singlehandedly convinced me of humanity's good nature and how we actually aren't all evil creatures. I would've appreciated more of a dissection of how colonialism could be explained by his "new realism", but most other examples used to provide answers to humanity's darker sides I think he argued against convincingly. If you want to become a little bit more of an optimist I highly suggest this book, as I think we should all be attempting to move away from the Hobbesian view of humanity.
