The Evolution of Everything: How Small Changes Transform Our World

English

By (author): Matt Ridley

If there is one dominant myth about the world, one huge mistake we all make it is that we all go around assuming the world is much more of a planned place than it is.

From the industrial revolution and the rise of China, to urbanisation and the birth of bitcoin, Matt Ridley demolishes conventional assumptions that the great events and trends of our day are dictated by those on high. On the contrary, our most important achievements develop from the ground up. In this wide-ranging and erudite book, Matt Ridley brilliantly makes the case for evolution as the force that has shaped much of our culture, our minds, and that even now is shaping our future.

As compelling as it is controversial, as authoritative as it is ambitious, Ridleys deeply thought-provoking book will change the way we think about the world and how it works.
