A Guardian Book to Look Out For in 2020

'Humankind challenged me and made me see humanity from a fresh perspective' Yuval Noah Harari

From 'the folk hero of Davos', Fox News antagonist and author of the international bestseller Utopia for Realists comes a radical history of our innate capacity for kindness.

It's a belief that unites the left and right, psychologists and philosophers, writers and historians. It drives the headlines that surround us and the laws that touch 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.

Providing a new historical perspective on the last 200,000 years of human history, Humankind makes a new argument: that it is realistic, as well as revolutionary, to assume that people are good. When we think the worst of others, it brings out the worst in our politics and economics too.

In this major book, internationally bestselling author Rutger Bregman shows how believing in human kindness and altruism can be a new way to think – and act as the foundation for achieving true change in our society.

It is time for a new view of human nature.

A very insightful and positive book! I love how the author takes us on a journey, explaining the course of his research step by steps. Dismantling previous experiments on human behaviors that were falsified and counterbalancing with trustworthy evidences.

Fantastic Eye-opening book!

The author did an excellent job in putting together the newest insights from all different fields of science to undermine his point of view; humans are basically kind. He did it in a very entertaining and at the same time inspiring way. I really have to rethink a lot of information I learned in my study of psychology. Looking at the human kind from his point of view, certainly will raise my quality of life!

I liked that Rutger is backing up his hypothesis with lots of facts from past and present. He's shaping a view on humanity that I find more relatable and healthier than the mainstream homo economicus view.

A great opposition to the homo economicus
