Este escrito representa mi intento por comprender por qué el mundo no cambia cuando uno quiere cambiarlo, y por qué está bien que así sea. Lejos de ofrecer soluciones, propone una actitud que combina la confianza en que todo tiene un orden —aunque no lo comprendamos del todo— con la duda permanente sobre nuestras propias certezas: el optimismo escéptico. No se trata de una contradicción, sino de un equilibrio. Una manera de estar en el mundo sin pretensiones mesiánicas ni resignación cínica.

This slim book makes a compelling case that the future of humanity would be better served by limiting procreation.

When you are faced with a decision, do you consider the best outcome, or do you consider your deepest values about which actions are appropriate? The Cost of Conviction contrasts these two primary strategies for making decisions: consequentialism, the former, or prioritizing one's sacred values, the latter.
