This book presents an optimistic vision of human progress, arguing that science has the potential to solve the problems of poverty, injustice, and suffering that plague society. The author draws on examples from political economy, medicine, and psychology to illustrate how scientific principles can be applied to these areas to improve human well-being. The book also grapples with the challenges and limitations of science, acknowledging that it is not a panacea for all of humanity's problems. Ultimately, the author argues that the spirit of scientific progress, characterized by a commitment to truth, a willingness to challenge dogma, and a belief in the power of human ingenuity, is essential for building a better future.
