wvransbe 's review for:
Homo Deus: A History of Tomorrow
by Yuval Noah Harari
It's simply mind-blowing the way this book describes how our present-day thinking has been shaped. Homo Deus broadens your horizon on today's conventional wisdoms and makes you rethink why we accept these as such.
Especially the last chapters on where we're heading towards are immensely intriguing. They will leave you more informed behind on a plethora of future-shaping questions such as why humans (should not) relate so dominantly to other species, how intelligence will decouple from consciousness, how a few multinationals have the power to manipulate human behaviour on a mass scale, why inequality will rise in a post-humanist era, why organisms are algorithms and dataism will become the next paradigm, and much more.
Excessive food for thought.
