Hans Rosling is a special man. He's done so much for the world he was master of, he deserved more time to finish this book than he got. And you feel this lack of time while reading. Some of the darkest stories are fleshed out in full gruesome detail, while other, more mundane are left lacking. 

You want to know more about rosling, a brilliant man, about his life, his thinking, his way of seeing the world. You get that here. Yet the afterword is what hit me most. His wife Agnes talking about their life, Hans' quirks and anecdotes about their 50 years together are moving and a special read.

Sagolikt bra biografi som sprudlar av samma glöd, nyfikenhet och engagemang Rosling hade i livet.

It’s not often that a memoir is truly interesting from start to finish but Hans Rosling nailed it.
A great man with a great story to tell.

Thanks to Libro.fm for the arc.

Jag älskar den här boken. Hur omtänksam och cool kan en människa vara? Svar: som Hans Rosling. Jag har lärt mig så mycket bara genom att läsa dessa 332 sidorna, om Hans liv och om hur världen utvecklats.
Jag hoppas att fler läser denna bok och lär sig lika mycket som jag!
