Alors que Sapiens examinait le passé et Homo Deus explorait notre avenir, 21 leçons pour le XXI e siècle se penche sur nos grandes questions contemporaines. Comment nous protéger d'une guerre nucléaire, de cataclysmes écologiques ou d'un désordre technologique ? Que faire contre l'épidémie de « fake news » ou la menace du terrorisme ? Que devons-nous enseigner à nos enfants ?
Yuval Norah Harari nous entraîne dans un palpitant voyage au coeur des sujets les plus brûlants de l'actualité. Pour y répondre, il aborde différents domaines tels que les technologies, la politique, les religions, l'art... mais aussi des sujets plus personnels, comme la résistance ou la méditation. Au coeur de ce nouveau livre, le lien entre les individus et les collectivités que nous devons à tout prix préserver face aux changements incessants.

The multi-million bestselling book, retold for younger readers>
El libro de no ficción del AÑO Un best seller internacional con más de un millón de ejemplares vendidos. Lúcido e iluminador: la historia de la humanidad en un solo volumen. Este es el fascinante relato de nuestra extraordinaria historia: de simios sin importancia a amos del mundo. ¿Cómo logró nuestra especie imponerse en la lucha por la existencia? ¿Por qué nuestros ancestros recolectores se unieron para crear ciudades y reinos? ¿Cómo llegamos a creer en dioses, en naciones o en los derechos humanos; a confiar en el dinero, en los libros o en las leyes? ¿Cómo acabamos sometidos a la burocracia, a los horarios y al consumismo? ¿Y cómo será el mundo en los milenios venideros? En Sapiens. De animales a dioses , Yuval Noah Harari traza una breve historia de la humanidad, desde los primeros humanos que caminaron sobre la Tierra hasta los radicales y a veces devastadores avances de las tres grandes revoluciones que nuestra especie ha protagonizado: la cognitiva, la agrícola y la científica. A partir de hallazgos de disciplinas tan diversas como la biología, la antropología, la paleontología o la economía, Harari explora cómo las grandes corrientes de la historia han modelado nuestra sociedad, los animales y las plantas que nos rodean e incluso nuestras personalidades. ¿Hemos ganado en felicidad a medida que ha avanzado la historia? ¿Seremos capaces de liberar alguna vez nuestra conducta de la herencia del pasado? ¿Podemos hacer algo para influir en los siglos futuros? Audaz, ambicioso y provocador, este libro cuestiona todo lo que creíamos saber sobre el ser humano: nuestros orígenes, nuestras ideas, nuestras acciones, nuestro poder... y nuestro futuro. El fuego nos dio poder. La conversación hizo posible que cooperáramos. La agricultura alimentó nuestra ambición. La mitología sostuvo la ley y el orden. El dinero ofreció algo en lo que confiar. Las contradicciones crearon la cultura. La ciencia nos hizo imparables. Reseñas: «Aborda las cuestiones más importantes de la historia y del mundo modernos, y además está escrito con un estilo vívido e inolvidable.» Jared Diamond «Renueva la creencia en la capacidad de decidir de los propios lectores. El éxito más sorprendente y renovador de un libro de no ficción de la última década.» Shmuel Rosner, editor original (Israel) ENGLISH DESCRIPTION New York Times Bestseller From a renowned historian comes a groundbreaking narrative of humanity's creation and evolution--a #1 international bestseller--that explores the ways in which biology and history have defined us and enhanced our understanding of what it means to be "human." One hundred thousand years ago, at least six different species of humans inhabited Earth. Yet today there is only one--homo sapiens. What happened to the others? And what may happen to us? 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. Dr. Harari also compels us to look ahead, because over the last few decades humans have begun to bend laws of natural selection that have governed life for the past four billion years. We are acquiring the ability to design not only the world around us, but also ourselves. Where is this leading us, and what do we want to become? Featuring 27 photographs, 6 maps, and 25 illustrations/diagrams, this provocative and insightful work is sure to spark debate and is essential reading for aficionados of Jared Diamond, James Gleick, Matt Ridley, Robert Wright, and Sharon Moalem.

As technology advances faster than our understanding of it, hacking becomes a tactic of war, terrorism and fundamentalism rise, and the world feels more polarized than ever, Harari makes sense of it all and raises the important questions we need to ask ourselves if we are to survive. In 21 accessible chapters that are both provocative and profound, he provides advice on how to think about these topics and how to act in order to prepare for a future unlike anything we can dream of. Few writers of nonfiction have captured the imaginations of millions of readers in quite the astonishing way Harari has managed. His unique ability to look at where we have come from and where we are going has gained him fans from every corner of the globe. There is an immediacy and accessibility to this new book that makes it essential reading for anyone interested in navigating the world today.

Tras el exito de Sapiens. De animales a dioses, Yuval Noah Harari vuelve su mirada al futuro para ver hacia donde nos dirigimos. La guerra es algo obsoleto. Es mas probable quitarse la vida que morir en un conflicto belico. La hambruna esta desapareciendo. Es mas habitual sufrir obesidad que pasar hambre. La muerte es solo un problema tecnico. Adios igualdad. Hola inmortalidad. ¿Que nos depara el futuro? Yuval Noah Harari, autor bestseller de Sapiens. De animales a dioses, augura un mundo no tan lejano en el cual nos veremos enfrentados a una nueva serie de retos. Homo Deus explora los proyectos, los sueños y las pesadillas que iran moldeando el siglo XXI -desde superar la muerte hasta la creacion de la inteligencia artificial. - Cuando tu Smartphone te conozca mejor de lo que te conoces a ti mismo, ¿seguiras escogiendo tu trabajo, a tu pareja y a tu presidente? - Cuando la inteligencia artificial nos desmarque del mercado laboral, ¿encontraran los millones de desempleados algun tipo de significado en las drogas o los juegos virtuales? - Cuando los cuerpos y cerebros sean productos de diseño, ¿cedera la seleccion natural el paso al diseño inteligente? Esto es el futuro de la evolucion. Esto es Homo Deus. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION With the same insight and clarity that made Sapiens an international hit and a New York Times bestseller, Harari maps out our future. Over the past century humankind has managed to do the impossible and rein in famine, plague, and war. This may seem hard to accept, but, as Harari explains in his trademark style--thorough, yet riveting--famine, plague and war have been transformed from incomprehensible and uncontrollable forces of nature into manageable challenges. For the first time ever, more people die from eating too much than from eating too little; more people die from old age than from infectious diseases; and more people commit suicide than are killed by soldiers, terrorists and criminals put together. The average American is a thousand times more likely to die from binging at McDonalds than from being blown up by Al Qaeda. What then will replace famine, plague, and war at the top of the human agenda? As the self-made gods of planet earth, what destinies will we set ourselves, and which quests will we undertake? Homo Deus explores the projects, dreams and nightmares that will shape the twenty-first century--from overcoming death to creating artificial life. It asks the fundamental questions: Where do we go from here? And how will we protect this fragile world from our own destructive powers? This is the next stage of evolution. This is Homo Deus.
This second volume of Sapiens: A Graphic History , the full-color graphic adaptation of Yuval Noah Harari''s #1 New York Times bestseller, focuses on the Agricultural Revolution--when humans fell into a trap we''ve yet to escape: working harder and harder with diminishing returns. What if humanity''s major woes--war, plague, famine and inequality--originated 12,000 years ago, when Homo sapiens converted from nomads to settlers, in pursuit of the fantasy of productivity and efficiency? What if by seeking to control plants and animals, humans ended up being controlled by kings, priests, and Kafkaesque bureaucracy? Volume 2 of Sapiens: A Graphic History-The Pillars of Civilization explores a crucial chapter in human development: the Agricultural Revolution. This is the story of how wheat took over the world; how an unlikely marriage between a god and a bureaucrat created the first empires; and how war, plague, famine, and inequality became an intractable feature of the human condition. But it''s not all doom and gloom with this book''s cast of entertaining characters and colorful humorous scenes. Yuval, Zoe, Prof. Saraswati, Cindy and Bill (now farmers), Detective Lopez, and Dr. Fiction, all introduced in Volume 1 , once again travel the length and breadth of human history, this time investigating the impact the Agricultural Revolution has had on our species. The cunning Mephisto shows them how to ensnare humans, King Hammurabi lays down the law, and Confucius explains harmonious society. The origins of modern farming are introduced through Elizabethan tragedy; the changing fortunes of domesticated plants and animals are tracked in the columns of the Daily Business News ; the story of urbanization is portrayed as a travel brochure, offering discount journeys to ancient Babylon and China; and the history of inequality unfolds in a superhero detective story; with guest appearances by historical and cultural personalities throughout such as Thomas Jefferson, Scarlett O''Hara, and Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Sapiens: A Graphic History, Volume 2 is a radical, witty and colorful retelling of the story of humankind for adults and young adults, and can be read on its own or in sequence with Volume I.
