Summary of Yuval Noad Harari's book: Sapiens: A Brief History of Humakind - Summary - E-book - ePub

The book "A Brief History of Mankind" is a comprehensive account of human history, from the distant origins of mankind in East Africa, through its spread around the world, to the present day, when Homo sapiens as we know it may be on the verge of extinction. Conventional knowledge about our species is turned on its head with novel and sometimes startling theories. This summary is intended to bring this book closer.
It allows you to get a profound overview or to quickly recap the original book, thus complementing your own reading experience. It concentrates the key statements, the main ideas, viewpoints and arguments. In the process, you will learn how Homo sapiens developed a taste for subjugating the earth, why quantity in reproduction takes precedence over quality in living conditions, how an unholy triad set globalization in motion, and how curious Homo sapiens has been working on his own deconstruction since the Renaissance.
