Hans Rosling of Gapminder.org gave a delightful talk at TED in 2006, titled “Debunking Myths about the Third World.” Here’s the 20 minute presentation that you may wish to watch first. The humor, energy and enthusiasm he brings to the topic is enviable.





Then watch a follow up presentation Hans Rosling made at TED in March 2007. It is titled “The Seemingly Impossible is Possible.” (19 minutes.)
