NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
Yuval Noah Harari, author of the critically-acclaimed New York Times bestseller and international phenomenon Sapiens, returns with an equally original, compelling, and provocative book, turning his focus toward humanity’s future, and our quest to upgrade humans into gods.
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.
With the same insight and clarity that made Sapiens an international hit and a New York Times bestseller, Harari maps out our future.
用户评价
##这是这几年来我读过的觉得最好看的一本书，大概没有“之一”。书中有太多兴奋点，从头到尾。有些是开眼界，有些是我的困惑点。准备什么时候再读一遍，做点笔记。
评分##Somewhat repetitive from time to time, but definitely worth every repetition!
评分##A must read. 表面上看起来是一本讲人类未来的书，但如作者自己所说，他并非在做预测,更不是危言耸听或者暗藏某个政治或者经济动机。更多的是作者结合目前人类科学和科技的发展、回顾人类历史和人性本身来探讨将来人类很有可能会面对的世界。感觉回到了大学时代，教授的智慧对话，引发学生思考。 It's philosophy, a warning，and a perfect way to engage everyone who cares to start a debate about humanity and future.
评分##角度的确很宏大 可以受到不少启发 作者太博学了 同时又讲的浅显易懂 服
评分##机场读物鸡头（complexity wise) 。什么都说了一点，什么也没说。大概是一种，here are some interesting facts, what do you think? 的读物。

评分##如前作般，用普通题材构建庞大的思想，赫拉利的未来接近美丽新世界。人类永不满足，过去争夺土地与能源，未来则争夺进化与永生。人类对待其他物种的方式，也许预示神人将如何对待普通人类。未来没有疾病，饥荒与战争，没有未知，没有重复的体脑劳动，甚至没有痛苦，永生成为现实，神人与数据成为新的上帝与宗教。人类能否由此获得更多的幸福？也许整体可能，个体未必。吊诡之处在，每当人类自认无所不知，无所不能，事后就被证明是愚蠢与自大。人类简史与未来简史，于我的意义在，串起近期的很多阅读。欧洲史的现代社会发端，西方政治传统的自由主义，源泉的个人主义，中东地缘现状，博物学的物种平等，科学史与科学哲学，高频交易，量子理论与相对论，必然的互联网未来，基因的生物工程，宗教的秩序，道金斯与平克。可见作者的知识脉络与梳理能力。

评分##通过Audible有声书听读完的。当然并不赞同一些观点，但是的确能够激发新的思考，比如：人本主义的合理性，感受和经历的价值，信息是否应该为王，人能否为自己的生命负责。
