redstarstampede 's review for:
I initially found some of Rosling's tone to be excessively pleased with its own cleverness and bordering on insufferable, but as I continued the book I instead found his joy and excitement to be endearing. Furthermore, as the book was finished after his death, the book was finished by his family who loved him dearly and it would not surprise me if they were responsible for some of this. As for the content, it's as excellent as you would expect from Dr. Rosling. While those who are relatively up-to-date with the trends in global health and development will be less surprised at the progress that has been made than will be many of the audiences referenced in his book, his "Rules of Thumb" for curating your perspective and the sources of information you consume are helpful to incorporate into your mindset.
