How I Learned to Understand the World: A Memoir

I wish I had read this book before Factfulness. This would make the second book taste even better.
Easy to read, this book will touch people differently, depending on their humanitarian sense and the stage of life they are in. As a Portuguese, it was interesting to understand a little of a Swede's view of the Mozambican struggle for independence. It also was curious to learn about what life was like in a former colony right after the Carnation Revolution (April 25, 1974).
This memoir gave me a deeper insight into the life of Hans Rosling, a person I already admired. We go through his whole life, taking his personal life as a stage to expose the weaknesses of the whole world.
