Factfulness: Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World – and Why Things Are Better Than You Think by Hans Rosling

5.0

---

Now this book is different from my usual reads as it is a non fiction book! One of the first non-fiction books I have really read and I really enjoyed it and feel like it has had an impact of my life and how I think. The main focus of this book is global statistics and how they show that the world has improved over time. I felt like this book was very accessible and easy to understand even if you know nothing about statistics which I don't. The writer has a lot of life experience which he uses to highlight his points. I thought he was very interesting and witty throughout! I think everyone should read this book! It discussing important topics and whilst it makes things seem better than we think, it doesn't take away the importance of the big challenges we are facing such as climate change.
