- Summary
- "One hundred thousand years ago, at least six human species inhabited the earth. Today there is just one. Us. Homo sapiens... Professor Yuval Noah Harari spans the whole of human history, form 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, and incorporating full-color illustrations throughout the text, Harari explores how the currents of history have shaped our human societies, the animals and plants around us, and even our personalities... Sapiens integrates history and science to challenge everything we thought we knew about being human: our thoughts, our actions, our heritage ... and our future."--Page 2 of cover
