Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind by Yuval Noah Harari vs. Mythos by Stephen Fry

Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind by Yuval Noah Harari

www.amazon.com/Sapiens-Huma...

The great thing about this book is that it takes a big-picture view of human history. It attempts to explain the main themes of human history without getting bogged down in the details. Sapiens also debunks many popular myths about human history, including the one that people today live happier lives and have better diets than our hunter-gatherer predecessors. It comes with an epilogue about the future of humankind in light of ever-accelerating technological progress. With the recent advances in AI it is more relevant than ever. If you're going to read one book on history this year, read this one.
