Book Summary –

All the Trouble in the World is a satirical exploration of global crises and humanitarian issues, tackled with P. J. O'Rourke's signature wit and skepticism. Published in 1994, the book addresses problems like overpopulation, famine, environmentalism, poverty, disease, and war. O'Rourke travels to different parts of the world — from Somalia and Haiti to Bangladesh and the Amazon — investigating these pressing issues firsthand. Rather than offering policy solutions, he critiques the often simplistic, idealistic, or misguided ways in which Western societies, especially liberals, attempt to "save the world." The book blends travel writing, political commentary, and humor, aiming to cut through the sentimentality that often clouds public discourse on global problems.

About the Author:

Starting his career in the 1970s with National Lampoon, he later became a foreign correspondent and a frequent contributor to Rolling Stone and The Atlantic. O'Rourke wrote over 20 books, many of which became bestsellers, including Parliament of Whores and Give War a Chance. His work often combined first-hand reporting with biting social commentary, making him a distinctive voice in political journalism.
