Historian Rutger Bregman explores the nature of humanity in his book. Contrary to the assumptions of Western thought, Bregman argues that humans are not evil, but rather, fundamentally good. Starting from this premise, it becomes possible to think about the world and the people in it in a completely new and fundamentally optimistic way. In his compellingly written and persuasive book, Bregman presents ideas for improving the world. They are innovative and bold, and above all, filled with hope.
