  • Shortlisted for the BBC Samuel Johnson Prize for Non-fiction 2011.Life is on the up.We are wealthier, healthier, happier, kinder, cleaner, more peaceful, more equal and longer-lived than any previous generation. Thanks to the unique human habits of exchange and specialisation, our species has found innovative solutions to every obstacle it has faced so far.In ‘The Rational Optimist’, acclaimed science writer Matt Ridley comprehensively refutes the doom-mongers of our time, and reaches back into the past to give a rational explanation for why we can – and will – overcome the challenges of the future, such as climate change and the population boom.Bold and controversial, it is a brilliantly confident assertion that the 21st century will be the best for humankind yet.

Reference Editorial Review

Rational Optimist: How prosperity Evolves offers a compelling exploration of human progress through the lens of collective intelligence. Author Matt Ridley meticulously researches and presents the thesis that trade, specialization, and innovation are the true engines behind wealth creation and societal evolution. He argues that despite common pessimism regarding the future, evidence shows an upward trend in human development—from increased life expectancy to decreased child mortality rates over the last 200 years. Ridley challenges the notion that our resources are static, illustrating instead how human ingenuity allows for dynamic advancements in technology and quality of life. His optimistic outlook encourages readers to embrace the idea that creativity and collaboration can lead to a brighter future for humanity.
