Hayvanlardan Tanrılara - Sapiens

- Why did Homo sapiens turn into an ecological serial killer?
- Why is money the only thing everyone trusts?
- Why are most societies male-dominated when women have superior social skills?
- Why do people who are so talented at gaining power fail to transform that power into happiness?
- Is science the religion of the future?
- Have people already expired?
There were at least six different types of humans on Earth 100 thousand years ago. Today, there is only Homo Sapiens. What happened to the others and what will happen to us?

Most studies deal with the adventure of humanity with either a historical or biological approach, but Harari shatters traditions in this book that he started with the Cognitive Revolution that took place 70 thousand years ago. Exploring many topics, from the role humans play in the global ecosystem to the rise of empires and the modern world, Sapiens reconsiders accepted narratives by bringing history and science together.

Harari also forces the reader to look to the future. Recently, humans have begun to bend the laws of natural selection that have governed life for four billion years. We have now gained the ability to design not only the world, but also ourselves and other living things. So where does this take us, what can it turn us into?

Translated into more than 30 languages, this provocative work is an excellent resource, especially for readers familiar with the works of Jared Diamond, James Gleick, Matt Ridley, and Robert Wright.

" Sapiens addresses the biggest questions of history and the modern world in a very simple language. You will love it!"
-Jared Diamond, author of Guns, Germs and Steel-

" Harari 's work is full of ideas and surprising facts that stand against accepted doctrines."
-John Gray, Financial Times-
