À propos de cet audio
From the author of the New York Times bestsellers Humankind and Utopia for Realists—“a more politically radical Malcolm Gladwell” (The New York Times)—comes a bold manifesto daring us to harness our talents and transform our idealism into action, all with the goal of making the world a wildly better place.
A career consists of 2,000 workweeks, and how you spend that time is one of the most important decisions of your life. Still, millions of people are stuck in in mind-numbing, pointless, or just plain harmful jobs.
There’s an antidote to this waste of talent, and it’s called moral ambition. Moral ambition is the will to be among the best, but with different measures of success. Not a fancy title, fat salary, or corner office, but a career dedicated to the best solutions to the world's biggest problems—whether that means tackling climate change, making pandemics history or fighting Big Tobacco.
In Moral Ambition, internationally bestselling author Rutger Bregman reveals how our conventional definitions of success are harming us and the planet, and shows how we can shift the focus from personal gain to societal benefit. In the process, he explains, we will join a growing movement of pioneers who are already living out this ethos. They're the builders, the problem-solvers, the doers who have chosen a path less traveled. A guidebook to finding that path for ourselves, Moral Ambition reminds us that the real measure of success lies not in what we accumulate, but in what we contribute, and shows how we, too, can build a legacy that truly matters.
The audiobook edition features an interview between Rutger and his editor, Alexander Littlefield.

Daughter. Duhitár-. Dustr. Dukte. Listen to these English, Sanskrit, Armenian and Lithuanian words, all meaning the same thing, and you hear echoes of one of history’s most unlikely journeys. All four languages—along with hundreds of others, from French and Gaelic, to Persian and Polish—trace their origins to an ancient tongue spoken as the last ice age receded. This language, which we call Proto-Indo-European, was born between Europe and Asia and exploded out of its cradle, fragmenting as it spread east and west.

Editorial Review
The author’s first book had a profound impact on me. It aligned with how I think, and encouraged me to be a better person — to value kindness and common sense. That book came into my life at the right moment and planted a seed of change.
This one, however, felt a little too plain. Perhaps it’s because I’m currently in a more complex stage of life — a kind of personal uprising. I’m searching for how to believe in people again, especially men. In that state of mind, I was looking for something deeper or more challenging. This book felt like it was speaking to an earlier version of me — someone who hadn’t yet started asking bigger questions.
To be fair, the tone of the book is gentle, hopeful, and accessible. For someone at the beginning of their personal journey toward empathy and reflection, it might serve as a soft, encouraging entry point. I wonder if I’d read this book first, would it have had the same impact the author’s debut did? Maybe. Maybe not.
In the end, while it didn’t resonate with me as strongly, I still believe it has value. I hope it finds the right reader — someone ready to take their first step toward being more kind, thoughtful, and open-hearted
