Who's read Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari? I read it a few years ago, it's a real game changer in terms of how we see and think about the world. I was reminded about it just now and wondered if anyone else on here had read it?

It's one of approx 5 million books sat on my bedside table that I'll get round to eventually. I bought it after hearing extracts on 'Book of the week' which had me intrigued. |  | | |

Put it ahead of the other 5 million, it's really worth reading. | |

Yes, it's very good and I have just finished Homo Deus which is also excellent. |  | | |

I'm cheating and have downloaded it onto my Blinkist app (it's like crib notes in text & audiobook form) |  |

In a nutshell Pete, a completely different way of looking at history. But it's more than than that. One of the key questions he posits is: are people happier now, in the modern age, than they were, say, pre the agricultural revolution? And if not, then is the narrative about progress wrong? But he goes even deeper than that, changes the way you look at everything. Very, very good. | |
