Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow

Published by Vintage, 2017, softcover, 513 pages, index, condition: as new.

Those who read and loved Yuval Noah Hararis Sapiens have been eagerly anticipating his new book Homo Deus. While Sapiens looked back at our evolutionary development, this new book examines where we might be headed (Homo Deus is subtitled A Brief History of Tomorrow). Predicting the future isnt as easy as deconstructing the past, and Harari openly admits the challengebut even if hes completely wrong in his predictions, and most of us doubt he is, Homo Deus is the kind of provocative, food-for-thought read that drew so many of us to his work in the first place. According to Harari, our future could be very different from our presentdark, technocratic, and automatedbut reading about our possible fates, presented in Hararis clear-eyed and illuminating style, sure is fascinating.
