Sapiens:
A Brief History of Humankind
By
Yuval Noah Harari
Narrated by: Derek Perkins
100,000 years ago, at least
six human species inhabited the earth. Today there is just one. Us. Homo
sapiens.
How did our species succeed in the battle for
dominance? Why did our foraging ancestors come together to create cities and
kingdoms? How did we come to believe in gods, nations and human rights; to
trust money, books and laws; and to be enslaved by bureaucracy, timetables and
consumerism? And what will our world be like in the millennia to come?
In Sapiens, Dr Yuval Noah Harari
spans the whole of human history, from the very first humans to walk the earth
to the radical – and sometimes devastating – breakthroughs of the Cognitive,
Agricultural and Scientific Revolutions. Drawing on insights from biology,
anthropology, paleontology and economics, he explores how the currents of
history have shaped our human societies, the animals and plants around us, and
even our personalities. Have we become happier as history has unfolded? Can we
ever free our behaviour from the heritage of our ancestors? And what, if
anything, can we do to influence the course of the centuries to come?
Bold, wide-ranging and provocative, Sapiens
challenges everything we thought we knew about being human: our thoughts, our
actions, our power ... and our future
