Description
In Humankind, Rutger Bregman dismantles the prevailing narrative that humans are inherently selfish and brutish. Drawing on groundbreaking research in psychology, anthropology, and history, he demonstrates that our species is naturally inclined toward cooperation, empathy, and generosity.
Bregman examines pivotal moments and experiments that have been misinterpreted to support a darker view of humanity. He reveals how our capacity for kindness has enabled us to build complex societies and achieve remarkable progress. The book explores the origins of inequality, the nature of violence, and how understanding our better instincts can reshape our approach to modern challenges.
Through compelling narratives and scientific evidence, Humankind offers a refreshing perspective on human potential and our ability to create a more compassionate world.
