21 Lessons for the 21st Century

Quick Overview

Review “There is surely no one alive who is better at explaining our world than Yuval Noah Harari – he is the lecturer we all wish we?d had at university. Reading this book, I must have interrupted my partner a hundred times to pass on fascinating things I?d just read. Harari has done it again – 21 Lessons is, simply put, a crucial book.” (Adam Kay) “I?m predicting that 21 Lessons for the 21st Century will complete a Harari hat-trick of classics? The clarity of Harari’s vision is astonishing… thanks to him, the world makes better sense to many more of us.” (Bookseller *Book of the Month*) “Harari thrills his readers because he addresses the biggest possible topics with confidence and brio. Compared with the subjects he tackles, anything else we might read looks piffling and parochial. We all would like to know how we came to be what we are and what we might one day become.” (Evening Standard) “Intelligent, lucid and refreshingly unpretentious style.” (DesignCurial) About the Author Yuval Noah Harari has a PhD in History from the University of Oxford and now lectures at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, specialising in world history. His two books, Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind and Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow, have become global bestsellers, with more than 12 million copies sold, and translations in more than forty-five languages.

Product Description

The future is here. Learn to live in it.

In twenty-one bite-sized lessons, Yuval Noah Harari explores what it means to be human in an age of bewilderment.

How can we protect ourselves from nuclear war, ecological cataclysms and technological disruptions? What can we do about the epidemic of fake news or the threat of terrorism? What should we teach our children?

Yuval Noah Harari takes us on a thrilling journey through today’s most urgent issues. The golden thread running through his exhilarating new book is the challenge of maintaining our collective and individual focus in the face of constant and disorienting change. Are we still capable of understanding the world we have created?
