Citation

David Deutsch (November 09, 2025). The Beginning of Infinity. Penguin UK.

Summary

1–2 sentences in your words.

The Beginning of Infinity argues that progress is unbounded wherever good explanations can be created and preserved. Deutsch weaves together physics, computation, and political philosophy to claim that problems are inevitable but also, in principle, solvable, if we build institutions and cultures that welcome error-correcting knowledge.
