And yet this narrative ("They present how the world is improving in an irrefutable way") falls exactly into the trap pointed out by the link in this story: "Solely communicating the progress that the world has achieved becomes unhelpful, or even repugnant, when it glosses over the problems that are real today."

(Even though I agree this narrative is mostly correct)

Well, the world is improving, but it can be better. That's the message of the book. It's very optimistic and you should read it.
