The freedom to explore and exchange - whether it's goods, ideas or people - has led to stunning achievements in science, technology and culture. As a result, we live at a time of unprecedented wealth and opportunity. So why are we so intent on ruining it? From Stone Age hunter-gatherers to contemporary Chinese-American relations, Open explores how across time and cultures, we have struggled with a constant tension between our yearning for co-operation and our profound need for belonging. Providing a bold new framework for understanding human history, bestselling author and thinker Johan Norberg examines why we're often uncomfortable with openness - but also why it is essential for progress. Part sweeping history and part polemic, this urgent book makes a compelling case for why an open world with an open economy is worth fighting for more than ever.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books (UK)","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45413064540311,"sku":"9781786497185","price":1893.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781786497185.webp?v=1767918978","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/open-the-story-of-human-progress-9781786497185","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
