About the book "How the world really works"

We live in a world where access to information is unprecedented, but most people still don't understand how this world actually works. The book *"How the World Really Works"* by Vaclav Smila offers an explanation of seven key realities that determine our survival and development.

Smil delves into the topics of energy production, the food industry, globalization and the threat of the environmental crisis. He does not accept any extreme - neither excessive pessimism nor groundless optimism, but approaches problems from the standpoint of science. His research is based on facts and figures, helping readers better understand the real state of affairs in the world and anticipate future challenges.

The book answers deep questions about the fate of humanity, asking: *"Are we doomed or do we have a bright future?"*.
