Özet

Brought to you by Penguin.

When was the last time that reading the news made you feel good?

Dear Reader,

I know what you're thinking, is it some kind of macabre joke? Has she been in a coma? How can Ruby Wax write a book about good news when the world is facing the worst disaster since the Plague?

Let me explain. I began writing in 2018, back when the world's worries were somewhat different. Climate change, greedy bankers, exam results, crap politicians, mental health: these are still HUGE ISSUES, but even the ancient soothsayers reading pig entrails couldn't have predicted this.

This is my new mission: to share the green shoots of hope peeping through the soil of civilization. Literacy is at an all-time high, world-hunger is likely to be eradicated this century, technological improvements are saving lives ­- just to scratch the surface. I've talked to everyone from leaders to scientists to tech geniuses. I've done the research and practiced what I preach. And my conclusion? Behind the clouds, the sun still shines.

So here's to the shoots - may they become a blueprint for how the world can shift for the good. Hopefully we'll learn from them.

Love, Ruby

I think at this point in time we're all in need of as much good news as we can get! Ruby can always be guaranteed to lift your spirits!
In a world of relentlessly worrying news, finally a moment of good. I adored reading And Now for the Good News - truly there is hope
I adored interviewing Ruby: she has such a fizzing, uniquely vibrant and clever way of thinking about things. And I've wanted her on the podcast for ages because she does such important work
Easy-to-read and interesting take on (...) what's good in the world
In her imitable style, Ruby describes her global journey to hunt out people inventing a better world (...) self-compassion is at the heart of Ruby's philosophy
It's the antidote to all Covid angst life anxieties & proves that optimism is not an eye disease
I am reading and finding on every page a delicious morsel
It is nice even to think about Good News. Thank you for the book @Rubywax!

@Rubywax's New book is out on 17th September and it's GOOD NEWS.
She explores the goodness out there and how to cultivate it
This is a good read by my friend Ruby Wax and it's actually positive about the future, which I must say isn't something that often occurs to me about the future. Also, it's funny which I think is very important. And finally, Ruby has neither paid me, blackmailed me or threatened me to make me say this

Loved how Ruby just wrote from her heart. Loads of facts about how we are killing the planet on which we live but also stories of human kindness , innovative ideas and environment change initiatives . Loved it and great it was Ruby narrating.

Refreshingly factual AND humorous

Thank you Ruby for a fantastic audiobook and perfect timing for me at the start of 2021. It was a light of hope amongst the negative news that we are bombarded with on a daily basis. It’s heartwarming to hear about positive projects and a great starting point for me to find out where I can help.

Superb!
