Hannah Ritchie – författare

Sikt är bokserien som samlar smarta texter från hela världen. I fyra nummer per år skriver framstående författare, forskare, historiker, tänkare och ekonomer. Syftet är att lyfta fram nya, tänkvärda och banbrytande perspektiv.

I det här numret publicerar vi två av samtidens allra mest lysande författare: Jonas Hassen Khemiri och Rachel Cusk. Andrew Ross Sorkin gräver i den amerikanska börskraschen 1929, Kristina Sandberg skriver en personlig essä om sin pappa och så introducerar Johan Norberg Nobelpristagarna i ekonomi. 

Dessutom återvänder Per Andersson till Jan Stenbeck, Clara Popenoe Thor begrundar det svenska tillståndet och så listar vi seklets 25 bästa svenska fackböcker (hittills). 

Välkommen till det femte numret av Sikt.

This book will transform how you see our biggest environmental problems -- and how we can solve them.A STYLIST BEST NON-FICTION 2024 * A GUARDIAN BIGGEST FICTION AND NON-FICTION FOR 2024 * A WATERSTONES ‘BOOK YOU NEED TO READ IN 2024’ * A GUARDIAN ‘FIVE GREAT READS’ We are bombarded by doomsday headlines that tell us the soil won''t be able to support crops, fish will vanish from our oceans, that we should reconsider having children.But in this bold, radically hopeful book, data scientist Hannah Ritchie argues that if we zoom out, a very different picture emerges. The data shows we''ve made so much progress on these problems, and so fast, that we could be on track to achieve true sustainability for the first time in history.Packed with the latest research, practical guidance and enlightening graphics, this book will make you rethink almost everything you''ve been told about the environment, from the virtues of eating locally and living in the countryside, to the evils of overpopulation, plastic straws and palm oil. It will give you the tools to understand what works, what doesn''t and what we urgently need to focus on so we can leave a sustainable planet for future generations.These problems are big. But they are solvable. We are not doomed. We can build a better future for everyone. Let''s turn that opportunity into reality.''Practical and truly essential'' MARGARET ATWOOD * ''Does for the environment what Hans Rosling did for health'' BILL GATES * ''Invigorating, inspiring, often surprising'' DAVID WALLACE-WELLS * ‘I find it hard to express how much I love this book’ RUTGER BREGMAN * ''An unmissable myth-busting book to save our planet – read it'' TIM SPECTOR©2024 Hannah Ritchie (P)2024 Penguin Audio
