Peter Diamandis through this book looks at the serious problems facing the world today that includes water, food, sanitation, health care, energy and repressive governments. He puts a statement that the standard of living of the world's population can be raised to a level in which everyone's basic needs can be met by the year 2035. The book provides examples of new technologies that can sooner or later eliminate these problems. Authors assert that a number of forces have come together to create an opportunity for problem solving. Some of them include growth of technology, rise of philanthropists and the democratizing power of the Internet. A deeply optimistic book guide to think positively about what's possible.
