Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind

In this sweeping bestseller, historian Yuval Noah Harari traces the story of our species from insignificant African apes to rulers of the planet. He argues that three revolutions, cognitive, agricultural and scientific, shaped who we are, and that our unique ability to cooperate flexibly in large numbers rests on shared fictions such as money, nations and religions. Provocative and highly readable, Sapiens challenges readers to rethink what they assume is natural about human life.
