So What Does It All Mean ? By SS O’Connor Book Four in non - fiction series – The Secrets of Life: From Big Bang to Trum

Thank you @SSOConnorAuthor #SoWhatDoesItAllMean, @literallypr for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. So what does it all mean is the second book I have read in the series and this is book 4. You can read all of them as a standalone read. So what does it all mean, I found it to be well researched and very interesting read that talked about selfishness, why we want people to be happy, and many more. There are a lot of interesting topics SS O'Connor talks about throughout the book. The book is well written and has a great theory and analogy flowing through the book that will keep you entertained. I think anyone who is interested in these topics to do with culture will enjoy reading this book. I must admit from reading So what does it all mean has opened my eyes to things I did not know about our society and culture. 4 stars. Blurb The Secrets of Life series is written for everyone who, frankly , needs a spot of cheering up, and will provide conversation starters for years after reading O’Connor’s easy going, conversational style brings an outsider’s questioning eye to the great forces behind life. The final in the four part series shows what the theories, research and science all add up to. It examines the evidence that illustrates how wrong most people in thinking the world is descending into darkness and chaos, and shows instead that it’s actually improving at an astonishing rate. This explains, the author says, why in spite of the constant challenges our world faces,the human race is actually improving by the day, rather than becoming worse.Book Fourpoints out that many people say that humans are the ultimate triumph for the selfish gene, yet we’ve now developed to the point where we can choose to overrule so many of its instructions. As the facts about the world’s population, its life expectancies, birth rates, poverty, food security, viole nce, natural disasters, energy, climate and all the other major indicators are laid out in So What Does It All Mean? , it becomes ever clearer that the results of our evolution should give us reasons for optimism, not despair. The Secrets of Life series concludes by showing us why we are often wrong in our view of each other, why we’re becoming ever happier and more moral, and why we’re so frequently mistaken in our views about the future. Yes, it concludes, life does have a meaning, it does have an arc of evolution, non - zero cooperation is what makes things win... and that includes us human
