How the World Really Works: The Science Behind How We Got Here and Where We're Going
An essential analysis of the modern science and technology that makes our twenty-first century lives possible, How the World Really Works is a scientist's investigation into what science really does, and does not, accomplish.
Compelling, data-rich and revisionist, How the World Really Works is a wonderfully broad, interdisciplinary guide that finds fault with both extremes. Looking at the world through this quantitative lens reveals hidden truths that change the way we see the past, present. and, the uncertain future.
"How the World Really Works looks over the horizon of the future with humility and calmness, foreseeing 'a mixture of progress and setbacks, of seemingly insurmountable difficulties and near-miraculous advances.” -- Wall Street Journal
