About the author
Anna Rosling Rönnlund is a Swedish designer and a co-founder of the Gapminder Foundation. She helped create Trendalyzer and has spent much of her work making large statistical differences visible through clear, human-scale comparisons.
Factfulness begins with a set of multiple-choice questions about poverty, health, education, population, and vaccination. Audiences across professions tend to answer worse than random chance, a result Hans Rosling uses to investigate how a distorted picture of the world becomes intuitive.
