particularly thank Hans Wigzell, who bravely supported Gapminder from the
very beginning and who was with me until the last day, tirelessly trying to
figure out ways to prolong my life.
Above all, for their endless patience and love, my deep and sincere thanks
go to my teenage love, wife, and companion throughout my life, Agneta; to
my beloved children, Anna, Ola, and Magnus, and their spouses; and to my
grandchildren, Doris, Stig, Lars, Max, Ted, Ebba, Tiki, and Mino, who every
day give me hope for the future.
Ola, Anna, and I would also like to thank:

Mattias Lindgren for compiling most of the Gapminder historic time series
for the economy and demography. All my students and doctoral students,
from whom I learned so much, all the teachers and students who welcomed us
to their schools to help us test our materials, all the amazing consultants
around the world who have helped us, Jimmy Wales and the voluntary editors
on Wikipedia, and all the Dollar Street families and photographers.
The previous and current board members of the Gapminder Foundation for
their wise and stable support: Hans Wigzell, Christer Gunnarsson, Bo
Sundgren, Gun-Britt Andersson, and Helena Nordenstedt (who also helped
with fact-checking). And our amazing Gapminder team, Angie Skazka,
Gabriela Sá, Jasper Heeffer, Klara Elzvik, Mikael Arevius, and Olof
Gränström, headed by Fernanda Drumond, who tirelessly continued to
develop Gapminder’s free teaching materials while we finished this book.
And who also gave invaluable input to the manuscript!
And finally, our wonderful friends and families, for being patient with us
and for helping us throughout the process. You know who you are. Without
you this book would not have been possible. Thank you.
