The basic premise of the book is that the people of the world don't know about all the rapid progress throughout the world because the media mislead the public.  The author should have included educators, entertainers, politicians, and many billionaires, including Gates himself, as people who collude to intentionally misinform the public.  The more the public is scared, the more power and money these people confiscate.

Here are three, of the many, facts in the book:

Number 1: The average life expectancy throughout the world stayed flat at around thirty for 8,000 years, until the 1800s.  Then it more than doubled in less than 200 years to more than seventy today.  What happened in the 1800s?  We started using oil and coal and got electricity.  Thousands of products that greatly improve our quality and length of life are derived from crude oil.

We discovered germs.

Improving quality of life and extending life expectancy aren't the same thing lol.
