An Excerpt of SAPIENS by Yuval Noah Harari


Listen Later

Rounding out our Summer of Excerpts is Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari, and read by Derek Perkins
Most books about the history of humanity pursue either a historical or a biological approach, but Dr. Yuval Noah Harari breaks the mold with this highly original book that begins about 70,000 years ago with the appearance of modern cognition. From examining the role evolving humans have played in the global ecosystem to charting the rise of empires, Sapiens integrates history and science to reconsider accepted narratives, connect past developments with contemporary concerns, and examine specific events within the context of larger ideas.
