One hundred thousand years ago, at least six human species roamed the Earth. Today, only one remains: us. Renowned historian Yuval Noah Harari charts the extraordinary journey of Homo sapiens, from our role in the global ecosystem to the empires we've built. This sweeping exploration challenges us to rethink our beliefs, connect past and present, and ponder our future - for we now wield the power to design not just the world, but ourselves.
