Sapiens is a history book which is about the evolution of civilization. It is authored by Yuval Noah Harari. He is an Israeli historian and author. Homo Deus is another incredible book from the author that you must consider listening to.
The audio narration of the subject title is done by Derek Perkins and you will love everything about this incredible performance.
There were six species of humans believed to be inhabiting the planet Earth many hundreds of thousand years ago. But in today’s time, there is only one and that specie is known as the Homo sapiens. But what happened to the other five species of humans? And, what could happen to our specie at any time in the future?
The majority of the books that you will find about the evolution of humanity usually pursue a historical or biological kind of approach. But, Yuval Noah Harari in this title broke the mold. He came up with a completely original book on the subject matter that started with evolution 70,000 years ago. It all came in this title with modern cognition. Yuval Noah Harari touched on different topics which include the examining of the critical role that humans played in their evolution process in the ecosystem of the world and he also talked about the rise of different empires in history.
The first half of the book was amazing but things got slowed down in the second half. This is a book that integrates science and history for the listeners to reconsider the old, accepted narratives about the evolution of humans. It is worth listening to, especially considering the strong narration by Derek Perkins.
