PINK), PROVOCATIVE (ADAM GRANT) ARGUMENT THAT OUR INNATE GOODNESS AND COOPERATION HAVE BEEN THE GREATEST FACTORS IN HUMANITY'S SUCCESS.If there is one belief that has united the left and the right, psychologists and philosophers, ancient thinkers and modern ones, it is the tacit assumption that humans are bad. It's a notion that drives newspaper headlines and guides the laws that shape our lives. From Machiavelli to Hobbes, Freud to Pinker, the roots of this belief have sunk deep into Western thought. Human beings, we're taught, are by nature selfish and governed primarily by self-interest.But what if it isn't true? International best seller Rutger Bregman provides new perspective on the past 200,000 years of human history, setting out to prove that we are hardwired for kindness, geared toward cooperation rather than competition, and more inclined to trust rather than distrust one another, in fact this instinct has a firm evolutionary basis going back to the beginning of 'Homo Sapiens'.From the real-life 'Lord of the Flies' to the solidarity in the aftermath of the Blitz, the hidden flaws in the Stanford prison experiment to the true story of twin brothers on opposite sides who helped Mandela end apartheid, Bregman shows us that believing in human generosity and collaboration isn't merely optimistic - it's realistic. Moreover, it has huge implications for how society functions. When we think the worst of people, it brings out the worst in our politics and economics. But if we believe in the reality of humanity's kindness and altruism, it will form the foundation for achieving true change in society, a case that Bregman makes convincingly with his signature wit, refreshing frankness, and memorable storytelling.I greatly enjoyed reading 'HUMANKIND'. It made me see humanity from a fresh perspective and challenged me to rethink my long-held beliefs. I warmly recommend it to others, and trust it will stir a lot of fruitful discussions.

FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE 'NEW YORK TIMES' BEST SELLER 'UTOPIA FOR REALISTS', A

"BOLD" (DANIEL H. PINK), "PROVOCATIVE" (ADAM GRANT) ARGUMENT THAT OUR INNATE

GOODNESS AND COOPERATION HAVE BEEN THE GREATEST FACTORS IN HUMANITY'S

SUCCESS.If there is one belief that has united the left and the right, psychologists and

philosophers, ancient thinkers and modern ones, it is the tacit assumption that humans are bad.

It's a notion that drives newspaper headlines and guides the laws that shape our lives. From

Machiavelli to Hobbes, Freud to Pinker, the roots of this belief have sunk deep into Western

thought. Human beings, we're taught, are by nature selfish and governed primarily by selfinterest.But

what if it isn't true? International best seller Rutger Bregman provides new perspective

on the past 200,000 years of human history, setting out to prove that we are hardwired for

kindness, geared toward cooperation rather than competition, and more inclined to trust rather

than distrust one another, in fact this instinct has a firm evolutionary basis going back to the

beginning of 'Homo Sapiens'.From the real-life 'Lord of the Flies' to the solidarity in the aftermath

of the Blitz, the hidden flaws in the Stanford prison experiment to the true story of twin brothers on

opposite sides who helped Mandela end apartheid, Bregman shows us that believing in human

generosity and collaboration isn't merely optimistic - it's realistic. Moreover, it has huge

implications for how society functions. When we think the worst of people, it brings out the worst in

our politics and economics. But if we believe in the reality of humanity's kindness and altruism, it

will form the foundation for achieving true change in society, a case that Bregman makes

convincingly with his signature wit, refreshing frankness, and memorable storytelling."I greatly

enjoyed reading 'HUMANKIND'. It made me see humanity from a fresh perspective and

challenged me to rethink my long-held beliefs. I warmly recommend it to others, and trust it will stir

a lot of fruitful discussions." (Yuval Noah Harari, author of the number best seller 'Sapiens')THE
