A Wiser World
A Wiser World is a project that aims to help us make our lives and societies better by developing a shared understanding of the world that looks for fundamental principles or facts of different topics.
The hope is to eventually identify the principles that are the most foundational to each topic, called “first principles”, and that allow us to understand the topic at the deepest possible level.
