THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER

'Masterful. Galor answers the ultimate mystery' LEWIS DARTNELL
'Completely brilliant and utterly original' JON SNOW
'Astounding in scope and insight' NOURIEL ROUBINI

The stunning advances that have transformed human experience in recent centuries are no accident of history - they are the result of universal and timeless forces, operating since the dawn of our species. Drawing on a lifetime's scientific investigation, Oded Galor's ground-breaking new vision identifies these keys to human progress, overturning a host of long-held assumptions and revealing the deeper causes that have shaped the journey of humanity:

Educationrather thanindustrialisation
Family size and gender equalityas much asinventions and technology
Geography and diversityrather thanwars, disease and famine
