200 Years of Progress

Hans Rosling's 200 Countries, 200 Years, 4 minutes

I first posted a link for this video back in December 2010. It's still a favorite from one of the most viewed lecturers on the internet. Using 120,000 pieces of data, Rosling illustrates the progress of 200 countries, in terms of health and economic well being, since 1810.
