The first volume of the graphic adaptation of Yuval Noah Harari's global
phenomenon and smash Sunday Times #1 bestseller, with gorgeous
full-colour illustrations and a beautiful package - the perfect gift for
the curious beings in your life.
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?
In this first volume of the full-colour illustrated
adaptation of his groundbreaking book, renowned historian Yuval Harari
tells the story of humankind's creation and evolution, exploring the
ways in which biology and history have defined us and enhanced our
understanding of what it means to be "human". From examining the role
evolving humans have played in the global ecosystem to charting the rise
of empires, Sapiens challenges us to reconsider accepted beliefs,
connect past developments with contemporary concerns, and view specific
events within the context of larger ideas.
Featuring 256 pages of full-colour illustrations and
easy-to-understand text covering the first part of the full-length
original edition, this adaptation of the mind-expanding book furthers
the ongoing conversation as it introduces Harari's ideas to a wider new
readership.
