Sapiens - by Yuval Noah Harari

'A brief history of humankind'

Human beings have come a long way since we were once apes. We evolved in many different directions - survival in the snowy plains of northern Europe required different traits than those needed to stay alive in Indonesia's steaming jungles. We quickly dispelled of our other human brothers, such as the Neanderthals, because we were given a unique gift: the 'Tree of Life Mutation' sparked a cognitive revolution that allowed us to communicate in unique ways. We quickly jumped to the top of the food chain, and by evolutionary standards, we dominated planet in no time. Yuval Noah Harari illustrates an exciting and educational tale as our journey continued through the agricultural, scientific and industrial revolutions.
