Sapiens a brief history of mankind
Sapiens a brief history of mankind written by Yuval Noah Harari is a
non-fiction history book about human evolution first published in
Hebrew in 2011 and English in 2014. This book is all to do with our
lifetime on the planet earth and our other ancestors such as
Neanderthals and Homo Florensis (the hobbit people). The novel was
very enlightening about our history whilst also having a philosophical
edge about modern humans and how we can change our world and
our lives for the better by detaching from material objects and
focusing on things that really matter. I did really connect with this
book because of its hard-hitting quotes and facts about life which it
seems we are too naive to understand until Harari brings it to light.
However this book is a very difficult read and takes a lot of willpower
and thinking to fully understand what Harari means. Despite this
once you get into the heart of this book its truly engrossing and
impossible to put down and as easy to pick up as my mums Sunday
roast.
In my opinion this book is a great read for anyone who is interested
in human history or modern affairs this is a 4/5 for me!
