This was a more challenging read than Sapiens largely because Harari discussed more controversial ideas, especially with respect to the development of AI. Irrespective if I accept his concepts or not, his arguments are so well though out that they certainly require one to think and to ask questions. His ideas on education and stories are fascinating and certainly are due consideration.

SO good. Yuval Noah Harari is so smart and this book was basically a collection of different perspectives on common issues we interact with today. I would definitely read this again and I feel like each time I would gain a new insight or understanding to appreciate. It challenges the reader to abandon preconceived notions or opinions and take a look at an issue from a different standpoint which is always a fun exercise to take.

This book didn't grip me as much as Sapiens did, and even less than Homo Deus did. Some of it just went straight over my head and felt like an overload of information.
