About this listen

This work provides a concise synthesis of the key insights and analysis from Factfulness. It is an independent summary, not the original book, and has no affiliation with or endorsement from the original publication. Created for listeners who want a clear, thought-provoking overview, it distills the central themes and ideas while preserving the depth and relevance of the work.

An argument for a fact-based, less fearful view of the world, this book shows how global data on health, wealth and education contradict widespread pessimism. By exposing the instincts and biases that make people think everything is getting worse, it teaches simple habits for reading statistics and seeing long-term human progress more clearly.
