THE SUNDAY TIMES AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERA Guardian, Daily Telegraph, New Statesman and Daily Express Book of the Year'Hugely, highly and happily recommended' Stephen Fry'You should read Humankind. You'll learn a lot (I did) and you'll have good reason to feel better about the human race' Tim Harford'The book we need right now' Daily Telegraph'Made me see humanity from a fresh perspective' Yuval Noah HarariIt'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 Dawkins, the roots of this belief have sunk deep into Western thought. Human beings, we're taught, are by nature selfish and governed by self-interest.Humankind makes a new argument: that it is realistic, as well as revolutionary, to assume that people are good. The instinct to cooperate rather than compete, trust rather than distrust, has an evolutionary basis going right back to the beginning of Homo sapiens. By thinking the worst of others, we bring out the worst in our politics and economics too.In this major book, internationally bestselling author Rutger Bregman takes some of the world's most famous studies and events and reframes them, providing a new perspective on the last 200,000 years of human history. From the real-life Lord of the Flies to the Blitz, a Siberian fox farm to an infamous New York murder, Stanley Milgram's Yale shock machine to the Stanford prison experiment, 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.

I have always subscribed to the veneer theory, to the belief that people are absolutely horrible, and we mustn’t trust anyone unless we know how to ‘outmaneuver’ them.I went ahead and got a copy of this book on Kindle anyway after reading an FT interview with the author 2 days ago. That article piqued my curiosity at the right moment in time.This book has been difficult because it’s different. Because it challenges every belief I had, premised on Hobbes, Machiavelli, the Stanford Prison Experiment, the Kitty Genovese incident, the ‘Broken Windows’ theory, and a lifetime of being trained & reminded not to trust ‘others’ in our ‘dog eat dog’ world.But in essence that’s what good books do, isn’t it? Just as travel is anathema to prejudice, a good book opens your mind.I’m going to re-read this book, and recommend it to everyone I know. I don’t believe the world is sunshine and roses (I write this review in a COVID-19 era of lockdowns and economic malaise, where protests rage around the world against the death of George Floyd). This book doesn’t make all the horrible things happening vanish, it sprinkles fairy dust on nothing. It simply presents a different perspective, a perspective that I would have ridiculed and mocked mercilessly as recently as a week ago.But after speeding through this book, I mean it when I say that this is the first time in a long time I have felt truly hopeful for a better future, for the possibility of change for the better.
