Despite hearing about this book for years, I am finally getting around to reading Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind by Yuval Noah Harari. Sapiens is interesting so far, but it has not yet changed how I previously thought about these topics. That said, I can see why it has been influential—Harari presents a broad, sweeping narrative of human history in an easy to read way. I’ll reserve final judgment until I finish, but for now, it’s an engaging read.
