Summary:Spanning a wide range of topics₇from string theory to education, from population growth to medicine, and even from global warming to the end of world₇What Are You Optimistic About? is an impressive array of what world-class minds (including Nobel Laureates, Pulitzer Prize winners, New York Times bestselling authors, and Harvard professors, among others) have weighed in to offer carefully considered optimistic visions of tomorrow.
