Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind

"Sapiens" takes readers through the full sweep of human history, from the era when multiple human species existed to the age of technology and genetic engineering. It uses a multidisciplinary approach—combining perspectives from biology, history, philosophy, and economics—to explore critical developments such as agriculture, money, religion, and politics. The book aims to explain how Homo sapiens became the planet's dominant species and investigates not only what happened, but how it felt for individuals who experienced these shifts.
