SAPIENS



//Sapiens A Brief History of Humankind by Yuval Noah Harari//
                          

                                   


Once upon a time,long long ago approximately six human species inhabited the planet Earth. 
Surprisingly,today only one exist. 
Yeah, that's "us" Homo Sapiens.

How did we make it?
What possibly made us to survive? Which dominating factor thrived to win us the battle?
How did we sapiens evolve and endure?

Harari of course traces history by answering these questions.
(Trust me ,the answers to these questions,fascinate!)

Starting from building empires,kingdoms, faith,trust, religious beliefs,money,food,work,law,education this entire systematic process evolved out of tireless effort taken by sapiens.

What's next???
We tend to have this question pop up some time,right?
And that thought or answer to that particular question channelise the future being landing on the planet Earth.
(Who knows, AIs, may downtrod SAPIENS)

Starting from Cognitive Revolution, Agricultural Revolution, Industrial Revolution sapiens evolved and now we exist in an age in which Scientific Revolution matters the most.
(In the near future,without any doubt, super humans may rule this planet over ruling Sapiens like how we did with Neanderthals)

Did all these R's satisfy sapiens and bring in some ecstasy?
Or in better terms, satisfaction!

Get to know the answers reading SAPIENS.
Why not put in some time knowing the past,present and future times of us - the super Sapiens?

Harari grabs attention throughout by giving non stop facts and the current time bangs hard and shouts someone created by sapiens say robot,may endure and evolve further!

So,why wait.. grab Sapiens tighter and enjoy the roller coaster ride.

Little drag is sapiens brain gets overloaded with facts.
(May be a robot with a  memory chip implanted in it may store all these facts safer).
Is that what the closing lines of Harari's Sapiens insist!!!
Wondrous...

Wow,we are going to be in history books sooner... but sure for deteriorating ecosystem, a robot child will yell at us...:p

~Happy reading.
