Book Preview:

#1 The past 200 years have seen a stupendous leap in the standard of living for billions of people around the world. In 2012, life expectancy in the most affluent countries surpassed that in the poorest country, Sierra Leone.

#2 The past two centuries have seen explosive growth both in population and prosperity worldwide. Per capita income is now ten times what it was in 1850. The average Italian is 15 times as wealthy as in 1880.

#3 The medieval dream of the Land of Plenty, known as Cockaigne, is becoming a reality today. We are living in an age of Biblical prophecies come true, with blind people being restored to sight, cripples who can walk, and the dead being brought back to life.

#4 The Land of Plenty is available to everyone, not just a select few. The number of people who have Internet access has jumped from 0. 4 percent in 1994 to 40. 4 percent in 2014. The number of people with cell phones has risen from 0. 5 percent in 1995 to 81. 6 percent in 2013.
