Enlightenment Now is a health book by author Steven Pinker.
People are living longer, healthier, freer and happier lives, and while our problems are formidable, the solutions lie in the Enlightenment ideal of using reason and science.
In this elegant assessment of the human condition in the third millennium, cognitive scientist and public intellectual Steven Pinker urges us to step back from bloody headlines and prophecies of doom.

In seventy-five incredible charts, Pinker shows that life, health, prosperity, safety, peace, knowledge, and happiness are on the rise, not only in the West but around the world. world. It was a gift of the Enlightenment: the belief that reason and science could enhance human flourishing.

The Enlightenment Project opposes the currents of human nature – tribalism, authoritarianism, demonization, magical thinking – which magicians are all too willing to exploit. The result is a corrosive fatalism and a willingness to destroy the precious institutions of liberal democracy and global cooperation.
