A review by madhurakatre
Homo Deus: A History of Tomorrow by Yuval Noah Harari
4.0
What this book does very well: Introduces new ideas to those who are unaware of them, weaves a good narrative to link biology to social sciences, and ends on a high note - a very good piece of writing about one of the possible ways in which the rise of Big Data will affect the fate of humans.
There is evident influence of Buddhist (and some Hindu) philosophy on a lot of the middle chapters of the book. It is interesting to witness Harari's claim in action - that our current religious frame of reference has influenced our thinking to such a degree that even a thinker like Harari doesn't escape its clutches.
It is a must-read for our ignorant minds.
