Very interesting. Felt like a bunch of Times articles. I like how it was organized. Kind of a bleak ending.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This book answers every question we have been encountered from many years.

Author Yuval Harari’s research is really commendable and really well explained.

The writing is really simple and appealing that every reader will understand it easily.

This is highly recommended if you want to know history of humankind unbiased.

One should always be suspicious of sweeping popular social science accounts of the world. Some interesting ideas. Some wacky ones.

This is maybe the most interesting and informative book I’ve read all year. The topic and approach is wonderful, the conclusion and afterward is great. It is thought provoking, discussable and fascinating. I can’t wait to read his new book.

Here are some of the chapters or topics I loved the most:

Agriculture revolution
This discussion of Language and Gossip
Capitalism
Wheels of industry
A permanent revolution - on time
Imagined communities have replaced intimate communities.
Consumerism and capitalism trick us into thinking we’re connected
And the lived happily ever after
The end of Homo sapiens.
