En 'Una breve historia del progreso', Ronald Wright examina el concepto de progreso a lo largo de la historia de la humanidad, desde la Edad de Piedra hasta la actualidad. A través de ejemplos de civilizaciones pasadas, el autor explora cómo el progreso tecnológico y el crecimiento descontrolado pueden llevar a la sobreexplotación de los recursos naturales y al colapso de las sociedades. Wright argumenta que comprender los patrones de progreso y desastre que se han repetido a lo largo de la historia es crucial para evitar los peligros inherentes y dar forma a un futuro más sostenible.
