"Our world faces multiple crises and is awash in pessimism. Abundance redirects the conversation, spotlighting scientific innovators working to improve people’s lives.

The New York Times
"Forget Club of Rome gloom and doom. If the future isn’t necessarily bright enough for shades, then, write high-tech pioneer Diamandis and science journalist Kotler, things are going to work out just fine…A nicely optimistic look at a matter that usually brings out the darkest thoughts among prognosticators…"
Kirkus Book Reviews
"Not only is Abundance a riveting page-turner…but it’s a book that values your intelligence by being honest and shooting straight. Abundance gives us a future worth fighting for. And even more than that, it shows us our place in that fight."
