520			_aBefore 1870, most people lived in dire poverty, with the slow crawl of invention continually offset by a growing population. Then came a shift as invention sprinted forward, doubling our capabilities each generation. Slouching Towards Utopia tells the story of the economic and technological shifts of the twentieth century in a bold and ambitious grand narrative. DeLong charts the unprecedented explosion of material wealth which transformed living standards around the world, freeing humanity from centuries of poverty, but paradoxically has left us now with unprecedented inequality, global warming, and widespread dissatisfaction with the status quo. How did the long twentieth century fail to deliver us to utopia? How did humanity end up less on a march to progress than a slouch in the right direction? And what can we learn from the past in pursuit of a better world?
