There were at least six distinct human species living on Earth 100,000 years ago. However, there is now just one—Homo sapiens. How did the others fare? And what may occur to us?
Renowned historian Yuval Harari explores how history and biology have shaped our understanding of what it means to be “human” and tells the story of humankind’s origins and evolution in this first volume of the full-color illustrated adaptation of his groundbreaking book. From analysing the place of developing humans in the global environment to mapping the growth of empires, Sapiens pushes us to reevaluate conventional wisdom, make the connection between historical advancements and current issues, and see particular occurrences in the perspective of bigger concepts.
With 256 pages of full-color graphics and simple prose that covers the first section of the lengthy original version, this translation of Yuval Noah Harari's mind-blowing book broadens the discussion by introducing his ideas to a public that has never read his work before.
