How did we get here?
Sapiens explores the history of humankind, from early hunter-gatherers to modern societies. It explains how stories, beliefs, and systems shape civilizations more than biology alone. The book forces you to question what we consider “progress.” Who Should Read It - Curious thinkers who enjoy big-picture ideas - Readers interested in history, psychology, and society - Anyone who wants to understand why humans behave the way they do

Incredible wisdom and perspective
For the curious amongst us, this book delivers incredible outside-in perspective connecting the dots on who we are as human beings, where we come from, why we behave the way we do, and the motivations, fears and precedents that underlie so much of how and why we behave as societies and sometimes defy societal norms to behave as individuals out for our own personal gains.

Eclairant et inspirant
Ce livre est une grande réussite ! A lire absolument pour tout personne intéressée par l'histoire longue, et les questions existentielles fondamentales associées. Il décrit les grandes phases de l'humanité, articule les passages de l'une à l'autre, et s'efforce d'identifier les courants de fonds de l'histoire, les dynamiques stables, mais aussi son aspect chaotique i.e. imprévisible. Ce survol historique est TRES bien écrit. Dense mais j'aimais étouffant. Bien documenté mais pas ostensiblement érudit. Très structuré et facile à suivre, mais puissant. Il y a aussi dans le ton une certaine décontraction rafraîchissante. Lorsque des questions n'ont pas de réponses définitives (souvent sur un sujet pareil) l'auteur décrit clairement les opinions scientifiques les plus fréquentes et ne conclus en général pas définitivement. Dans l'ensemble l'approche parait d'une grande honnêteté intellectuelle. Et je le répète, c'est un régal à lire ! Ce lire m'a fait pensé à 'Guns, Germs and Steel' de Jared Diamond. Et effectivement, celui ci est mentionné dans les remerciements de fin de livre comme quelqu'un qui lui a appris à rechercher la vision d'ensemble.

速読用教材に最適
英語の原書は難解な単語に構文と長い文が多くて1ページ読むのにすごく時間がかかるから大変だと思ってる人に本書はおすすめ。420ページ以上ある本だが、まず一文が短く、段落も短い。あまり難解な語彙は出てこないので気楽に読める。論旨明快で、一体どういうことだと頭をひねることもない。北村一真氏がこれからは大学入試の材料としてお目にかかることが多くなりそうと予言していたので買って読んでみたが、たった1日で50頁近く読み飛ばせた・・・しかも、なんとなく意味がわかるレベルではなく、完璧に読みこなせた上でだ。いや満足、満足。充実感たっぷり!その上、実に興味深い内容で、語り方も上手い。速読で大量に読んで英語力を養いたい人は、是非試して見るべし。どうでもいいけど、著者のハラリ氏はゲイなんだね。でもオックスフォードで博士号を取った歴史学者だ。だから文章も軟らかくウイットに富んでるのかもね。
