Life is getting better—and at an accelerating rate. Food availability, income, and life span are up; disease, child mortality, and violence are down — all across the globe. Though the world is far from perfect, necessities and luxuries alike are getting cheaper; population growth is slowing; Africa is following Asia out of poverty; the Internet, the mobile phone, and container shipping are enriching people’s lives as never before. The pessimists who dominate public discourse insist that we will soon reach a turning point and things will start to get worse. But they have been saying this for two hundred years. Yet Matt Ridley does more than describe how things are getting better. He explains why. Prosperity comes from everybody working for everybody else. The habit of exchange and specialization—which started more than 100,000 years ago—has created a collective brain that sets human living standards on a rising trend. The mutual dependence, trust, and sharing that result are causes for hope, not despair. This bold book covers the entire sweep of human history, from the Stone Age to the Internet, from the stagnation of the Ming empire to the invention of the steam engine, from the population explosion to the likely consequences of climate change. It ends with a confident assertion that thanks to the ceaseless capacity of the human race for innovative change, and despite inevitable disasters along the way, the twenty-first century will see both human prosperity and natural biodiversity enhanced. Acute, refreshing, and revelatory, The Rational Optimist will change your way of thinking about the world for the better.

读后感
相信未来《理性乐观派》 对于人类的未来，我们听得最多的就是各种悲观的预言，相比之下乐观派好像被挤得没有一席之地。所以看看乐观派的观点有时候也很有好处。在关于全球变暖的争论中，就有人持乐观的态度，列举历史上的温度变化，来证明现在上升的这一点点温度，不应该...
评分悲欢的流言比乐观的期望更能够吸引大家的眼球，人们总感觉到它无处不在，特别是近一个世纪以来，广岛核弹事件、切尔诺贝利核电站发生严重的事故后，更加延长了流言的生命期，一系列与物种消亡、癌症、犯罪、艾滋病、气候变暖等相关的问题出现在世界经济论坛上，可实际上，我们...
评分记得几年前，有一段时间东北老家突然开始流行吃所谓的野菜，有大饭店专门供作各种野菜和生蔬，饭店门前停满了各路豪车，然而各路食客来吃的却是蔬菜，很多菜连一丝肉丁都没有，这群从饥饿记忆中走出不到30年的人群真是让人啧啧称奇。不过时至今日，其实也算见怪不怪了，好像更...
评分 评分（让本文影响你对此书的评价之前，请注意两个前提：我给此书的评价是四星，里德利是我每本必读的作家；赞美之辞我在豆瓣和微博上都已说过了，这里都是批评。） 在第二、三两章中，里德利提出了一个观点：（我的总结）导致现代智人经历一系列戏剧性的快速进化，特别是语言和语...

书写的很流畅，但论点无甚新意，我自己已经悟到，另外本书自由主义的意识形态太重，使得其中错误也不少。另外就是写通史不能细节，而且其中细节也有错，不过这个是通病，可以原谅
评分Be critical towards the world if you want to make it a better place but quit being all whiny and depressing because the world we are living in is absolutely wonderful and amazing.
评分让不同想法互相交换意见，作者在中将其比喻成“let the idea have sex”, 这样就会产生新的想法。这些新的想法是推动这个社会创新和发展的主要动力。
