Planet Earth is 4.5 billion years old. In just a fraction of that time, one species among countless others has conquered it. Us. We are the most advanced and most destructive animals ever to have lived. What makes us brilliant? What makes us deadly? What makes us Sapiens? In this bold and provocative book, Yuval Noah Harari explores who we are, how we got here and where we're going.
Sapiens is a thrilling account of humankind's extraordinary history - from the Stone Age to the Silicon Age - and our journey from insignificant apes to rulers of the world.
Honderdduizend jaar geleden waren er wel zes verschillende menssoorten. Nu is er maar één soort over, en dat zijn wij. Homo sapiens. Hoe komt het dat alleen wij zijn overgebleven? Hoe kwamen onze voorvaderen op het idee om steden en zelfs koninkrijken te stichten? Waarom gingen we in goden geloven, maar ook in natiestaten, en in bedrijven. Waarom vertrouwen we op geld, boeken en wetten? En hoe zal onze wereld er in de toekomst uitzien?
In Sapiens neemt Yuval Noah Harari ons mee op een fascinerende reis door de geschiedenis van de mensheid. Wie zijn we? Waar komen we vandaan? En hoe zijn we geworden wie we nu zijn? In zijn aanstekelijke relaas laat Harari ons kennismaken met een raadselachtig fenomeen: de mens.
'Zeventigduizend jaar geleden was Homo sapiens nog een onbeduidende diersoort die zo'n beetje zijn eigen gangetje ging in een uithoek van Afrika. In de millennia daarna veranderde hij zichzelf in de absolute heerser van de planeet en de grootste nachtmerrie van het ecosysteem.'
