If Abundance by Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson sold you on data-driven optimism about progress, let Mustafa Suleyman show you The Coming Wave next.

If Abundance gave you permission to believe in progress through data, The Coming Wave is your next intellectual covenant—an insider's case that AI and biotech aren't just disruptive buzzwords but the empirical engines of genuine abundance. Mustafa Suleyman, co-founder of DeepMind, channels the same rigorous optimism you loved in Klein and Thompson, dismantling doomsday reflexes with historical parallels and tech-sector evidence that innovation escapes every Malthusian trap we throw at it.

This isn't utopian handwaving; it's realistic futurism grounded in governance dilemmas you'll recognize from debates about inequality, regulation, and who controls exponential growth. Suleyman makes abstract policy challenges feel like a conversation with someone who's built the future firsthand.

If you crave evidence-based arguments for a prosperous era, this is your next move.
