One of the reasons I wanted to talk to Matt Ridley and why I thought it would be worthwhile to do so, is because his books are in some sense an antidote to the incredible pessimism that seems to characterize public discourse in the modern world. One of the things I have been struck with over the last 10 years (and perhaps even more over the past 5 since I have been talking to literally thousands of people), is the degree to which members of our cultures, young people in particular, are fed this never-ending diet of tremendous gloom and doom. It is not like life is characterized by the absence of problems, and we have to watch our step all the time, but there is room for optimism, and Mr. Ridley is one of the most outstanding authors writing today in the intelligent optimistic vein.
