RUTGER BREGMAN
'The Dutch historian who is making waves' – Dan Snow, History Hits
A forty-year, full-time career consists of around 80,000 hours, or 10,000 workdays, or 2,000 work weeks. How you spend that time is the most important moral decision of your life.
In Moral Ambition, internationally-bestselling author Rutger Bregman shows us it is possible to be both successful and idealistic by placing a drive for meaning and change at the centre of our lives. Looking at the impact of several heroes of history, he asks:
- What qualities do these social pioneers have in common?
- What made them so persuasive, influential, and effective that they could not be ignored?
- How can we develop those qualities, too?
Rutger argues that anyone can dedicate their abilities – and their time – to finding the best solutions to the world’s biggest problems. The most influential people aren’t two or five or ten times as influential; but a hundred, a thousand, or a million times. This book will show you how to be one of those people. It might not make your life easier, but it will make it more satisfying and consequential. Perhaps, you too could become one of history’s heroes.
PRAISE FOR RUTGER BREGMAN:
'An almost indecently readable style' – Jonathan Freedland

'21st-century readers are short on prophets, especially the optimistic kind, and will give this one a cheerful hearing’ – The Economist
