About the book
Charles Kenny analyzes how, against pessimistic expectations, human quality of life has improved dramatically across nearly every metric over the past century. The book surveys advances in health, education, income, and well-being, investigating the mechanisms and policies that made this progress possible.
An elegant antidote to chronic skepticism, it offers robust evidence that human progress is not an illusion, but the result of intelligent choices and investments.
