Getting Better by Charles Kenny
Why Global Development Is Succeeding—and How We Can Improve the World Even More
The book presents an optimistic view of global progress, arguing that despite the persistence of economic disparities, the world has seen significant improvements in health, education, and quality of life over the past few decades. It challenges the pervasive pessimism surrounding global development by providing evidence of how innovations, policy changes, and international aid have contributed to lifting millions out of poverty, reducing child mortality rates, and increasing literacy and life expectancy worldwide. The narrative is built around the idea that humanity has made remarkable strides in creating a better world for all, emphasizing the importance of continued efforts and investments in global development to sustain and further these gains.
