Im Grunde gut: Eine neue Geschichte der Menschheit by Rutger Bregman

funny hopeful informative inspiring lighthearted fast-paced

4.5

Fantastic read that is both educational for one's general knowledge  and not too heavy reading. Inspires hope and opens up interesting questions. Humour and illustrative examples make for an engaging experience. Myth-busting at its finest. 

The discussions on the findings' implications on our economy and capitalism vs communism was just mildly disappointing - some sharper consequences could have been drawn. But then again, the policy implications are more deeply discussed in Bregman's other book Utopia for Realists.
