Résumé

In a world deluged by irrelevant innformation, clarity is power. How can we see the big picture without getting caught up in an infinity of little details ? One way is to step back, to look at the really big picture : the entire history of the human species. Sapiens : A Graphic History is the story of how an insignificant ape became the ruler of planet Earth, capable of splitting the atom, flying to the moon, and manipulating the genetic code of life.
With Yuval Noah Harari as your guide, and accompanied by characters such as Prehistoric Bill, Dr. Fiction, and Detective Lopez, you are invited to take a ride on the wild side of history. The graphic format offers readers a new intellectual and artistic exploration of the past. Human evolution is reimagined as a tacky reality TV show. The first encounter between Sapiens and Neanderthals is explored through the masterpieces of modern art.
The extinction of the mammoths and saber-toothed tigers is retold as a whodunit movie. Sapiens : A Graphic History is a radical—and radically fun—retelling of the story of humankind, bursting with wit, humor, and colorful characters. If you want to know why we are all trapped inside the dreams of dead people, this is your ideal reader.
