Who is Yuval Noah Harari?
Yuval Noah Harari is an Israeli historian and the author of Homo Deus and 21 Lessons for the 21st Century.
Why is it so popular?
It compresses 70,000 years into a provocative, readable narrative. Barack Obama praised its sense of how briefly we have been here.
Is it controversial?
Some scholars dispute its generalisations, but that sweep is also what makes it such a compelling introduction.
Who should read it?
Anyone curious about big history: where we came from, what makes us brilliant and what makes us deadly.
