A sweeping work of popular history follows Homo sapiens from early prehistory to the forces shaping modern life. Harari connects biology, culture, empire, money, religion and science, asking how shared stories enabled large-scale human cooperation. The book combines a broad historical narrative with provocative questions about power, progress and happiness.
