Why did Homo sapiens become 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 skilled at gaining power fail to transform that power into happiness?
Is science the religion of the future?
Are people already out of date?
100 thousand years ago there were at least six different types of humans on earth. 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 challenge accepted doctrines.” John - Gray, Financial Times -
Harari, who explains how the human species dominated the world in his book From Animals to Gods: Sapiens, addresses our future with his striking predictions in Homo Deus. In this work, in which he examines humanity's journey in pursuit of immortality, happiness and divinity in the light of science, history and philosophy, he constructs a future in which humans evolve into a completely different species, Homo deus.
Is Homo sapiens, who started out as an "insignificant animal", preparing for his own end in order to reach the level of the gods?
How did Homo sapiens come to believe in the humanist doctrine that the universe revolves around the human species?
How does this teaching shape our daily lives, our art, and our most secret passions?
Do humans have any trademarks other than their high intelligence and power that distinguish them from cows, chickens, chimpanzees and all computer programs?
Why hasn't there been a significant increase in our happiness levels despite achieving unprecedented gains throughout history?
“To understand all this, all we have to do is look back and examine what Homo sapiens actually is, how humanism became a world-dominating religion, and why trying to realize the dream of humanism will actually lead to the end of humanity itself. This is the main issue of this book.”
“You will both have fun and be surprised while reading. Above all, you will find yourself thinking about things you have never thought about before.” Daniel Kahneman, author of Thinking Fast and Slow
“When you read Homo Deus, you will feel like you are standing on the edge of a cliff that you have reached after a long and difficult journey. The journey will no longer matter because you will take your next step into a vast void.” David Runciman, The Guardian
Yuval Noah Harari, one of the most influential thinkers of the 21st century, discussed how humans transformed from an insignificant animal to the master of the world in his first book, Sapiens, and the journey of humanity in pursuit of immortality, happiness and divinity with his striking predictions in his second book, Homo Deus. 21 Lessons for the 21st Century brings up essential questions for discussion in order to cope with the unprecedented technological and economic disruptions of our century and the continuous changes experienced.
Is God returning?
How will computers and robots change what it means to be human?
What can we do against the fake news epidemic?
How can we regain our freedom of choice when Big Data is constantly watching us?
If we cannot understand the world, how will we distinguish between right and wrong, right and wrong?
Is it possible to find solid ethical ground in a world that goes beyond our horizons, revolves entirely beyond human control, and casts a shadow over all gods and ideologies?
Do Homo sapiens have the ability to make sense of the world they create? Is there any clear boundary left separating reality from fiction?
Can nationalism be a panacea for the problems caused by inequality and climate change?
What kind of skills do we need in an age where old narratives collapse and are not replaced by new ones?
While Harari addresses these and similar fundamental questions in 21 chapters, each more provocative and profound, he clarifies political, technological, social and existential challenges based on the ideas he put forward in his previous books.
