Book Review: Abundance by Ezra Klein
What if the biggest obstacle to progress isn’t a lack of ideas, but a lack of belief that we can actually build the future we dream of? That’s the premise of Abundance: How We Build a Better Future by Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson, a book that blends political critique with forward-looking optimism. At its core, this is a call to move beyond scarcity thinking and rediscover a version of liberalism, and governance, that builds big, bold things.

In a culture obsessed with positive thinking and "no regrets" mantras, Pink makes a compelling case for why regret—when properly understood and channeled, can become one of our most powerful tools for growth and decision-making.
