Through discovery and innovation we achieve miracles. But people show remarkably little curiosity about this aspect of human history: what are discovery and innovation, why do they happen to us and not to rabbits or rocks and why don't they happen more often? Adam Mastroianni's ingenious and delightful book explores how we have to fight our own natures to change the world for the better.
Matt Ridley, author of How Innovation Works
