'A triumphant blast on the vuvuzela of common sense' Boris Johnson 'A glorious defence of our species... a devastating rebuke to humanity's self-haters' Sunday Times 'No other book has argued with such brilliance against the automatic pessimism that prevails' Ian McEwan 'His theory is, in a way, the glorious offspring that would result if Charles Darwin's ideas were mated with those of Adam Smith' The Economist 'Original, clever and controversial' Guardian 'As a work of bold historical positivity it is to be welcomed. At every point cheerfulness keeps breaking through' The Times
