Toward universal human flourishing......


...................................Steven Pinker offers his thoughts on why we are living in a golden age, despite what you might heard on the news.  An excerpt:

Thanks to these gifts, people in a majority of countries have become happier. Even Americans, who take their good fortune for granted and have stagnated in happiness, call themselves “pretty happy” or happier. And despite the panic about “kids today” (heard in every era), younger generations are less unhappy, lonely, drug-addicted and suicidal than their Boomer parents.
