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.
##寫曆史水平的高低在於能否對同一曆史事件的多角度觀察。
評分##過去一個月在上班的公交車上斷斷續續讀完。人類未來的命運道路或許從來沒有像現在這樣充滿不確定性,但能夠親眼見證Dataism對Humanism的衝擊,也是這個時代給我們的最大福利。接下來打算讀這個作者的前一本書Sapiens
評分##角度的確很宏大 可以受到不少啓發 作者太博學瞭 同時又講的淺顯易懂 服
評分##通過Audible有聲書聽讀完的。當然並不贊同一些觀點,但是的確能夠激發新的思考,比如:人本主義的閤理性,感受和經曆的價值,信息是否應該為王,人能否為自己的生命負責。

評分##Commuting讀物,終於讀完瞭,影響非常大,在我看來這本書最核心的其實是瓦解自由意誌,所以不會有幾個人真正理解到這一層,因為理解就意味著否定人文主義自由主義和人類存在的意義,所以讀完的那一刻,我內心的那個自我就已經跳樓自殺瞭。

評分##Somewhat repetitive from time to time, but definitely worth every repetition!
