Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind by Yuval Noah Harari

4.0

A good book, but with an overall gloomy tone. The author is perhaps a little bit too confident in his predictions and evaluations, and in dismantling others arguments, but the overall sense you get from this book is one of austountment, of what we have done, and become. Works well when partnered against 'Human Kind' , by Rutger Bregman, and only when you have read both books can you get the full picture if what our species are; both good, and bad versions of us.
