The New York Times best-selling "manifesto for the future that is grounded in practical solutions addressing the world's most pressing concerns: overpopulation, food, water, energy, education, health care and freedom." (The Wall Street Journal).

Since the dawn of humanity, a privileged few have lived in stark contrast to the hardscrabble majority. Conventional wisdom says this gap cannot be closed. But it is closing - and fast.

In Abundance, space entrepreneur turned innovation pioneer Peter H. Diamandis and award-winning science writer Steven Kotler document how progress in artificial intelligence, robotics, digital manufacturing synthetic biology, and other exponentially growing technologies will enable us to make greater gains in the next two decades than we have in the previous 200 years. We will soon have the ability to meet and exceed the basic needs of every person on the planet. Abundance for all is within our grasp.

Breaking down human needs by category - water, food, energy, healthcare, education, freedom - Diamandis and Kotler introduce us to innovators and industry captains making tremendous strides in each area.

In a world we’re we see so much negative and a view that world is getting worse, this book takes the opposite viewpoint and highlights the improvements in the past and possibilities of the future.

See the world with abundance

I started with book 3 of this Trilogy, narrated by Peter D, himself; a.biy of a mistake as the narrator for Abundance is not as engaging.
This is still an amazing book.

First one, in a trilogy not to be missed

3 of 5 stars.

From the vantage point of reviewing "Abundance" in 2022, I gained a new perspective on the accuracy of wide-eyed futurists. To put it bluntly, many of the predictions that this 2012 book claimed were 5-10 years away have not only failed to materialize, but still seem 5-10 years away. The facts presented throughout "Abundance" seem compelling, even predictable. Why the poor track record? I think a big part of it is a failure of deeper understanding of certain technologies (e.g. renewable energy) as well as not accounting for logistics, supply and culture in the broader adoption curve. If anything, in this post-COVID world in the midst of conflict in Ukraine, supply chains and logistics are breaking which will have profound effects on the developing world.

This is not to suggest that this isn't an enjoyable read - many sections are likely accurate, even memorable. Chapters which discussed Raymond Kurzweil's predictive methodology (which has actually been eerily accurate) and the surprising results of incentive prizes to break through technology bottlenecks were compelling. So, while I tended to gravitate towards these optimistic tomes that breathlessly outline accelerating technology curves, I'll continue to do so but with a more cautious perspective.

The narrator gives a solid performance.

An object lesson for enthusiastic futurists

This book should be required reading, beginning as soon as a child learns to read. It is well written, hope-filled and inspiring.
Never stop learning, asking questions, and working towards an abundant future for all.

I actually really enjoyed this book and find the entire topic and the technologies he's highlighting fascinating. That said, the book came out in 2012 so we're almost 10 years out and one can't ignore that most of the things he claimed we'd have in 5 to 10 years have not come to fruition as of yet.

I still think the overall message of the book is worthwhile and I too am optimistic about the future. I just think it's gonna take a little more time (perhaps multiply his estimates by 10). And with that in mind, I do think we need to look for more solutions NOW to address the many problems in the world (ex mRNA vaccinations).

Perhaps multiply his time estimates by 10

The stories posted here and some of the discussions are visibly dated, but interesting enough, they are still relevant and still very rich.

It's a bit dated but still awesome!

I loved this book. Before stumbling upon it, I had been in a little audible book rut where o had started lots of books but none were really capturing my attention. This book grabbed me immediately. I genuinely had no idea some of the solutions presented in this book existed! This book was eye-opening, inspiring, hopeful & really thought provoking & insightful. It goes by very quickly and the narration is superb! You can see why the narrator is a SAG Actor b/c he does a liquid gold perfect read w/ perfect inflection and tone. I loved this book. Highly recommend.

Loved this book. Learned so much, gained hope!
