Performers:  Read by Dan Woren ; introduction read by the author. Summary:  A provocative look at the world's most difficult, seemingly ineradicable problems, and the surprising stories of the countries that solved them. We all know the bad news. The heady promise of the Arab Spring has given way to repression, civil war, and an epic refugee crisis. Economic growth is sputtering. Income inequality is rising around the world. And the threat of ISIS and other extremist groups keeps spreading. We are living in an age of unprecedented, irreversible decline, or so we're constantly being told. The author presents a very different picture, revealing the often-overlooked success stories, offering a provocative, unconventional take on the answers hiding in plain sight. Ten pervasive and seemingly impossible challenges - including immigration reform, economic stagnation, political gridlock, corruption, and Islamist extremism. The author shows that, contrary to the general consensus, each has a solution. In his analysis of government initiatives as diverse as Brazil's Bolsa Família program, Indonesia's campaign against radicalism, Canada's early embrace of multiculturalism, and Mayor Michael Bloomberg's efforts to prevent another 9/11, Tepperman isolates the universally applicable measures that can boost and buttress equality, incomes, cooperation, and cohesion in wildly diverse societies.
