About the book
Yuval Noah Harari examines the possible futures of humanity, arguing that the history of Homo sapiens is entering a new phase in which technology, artificial intelligence, and genetic enhancement may fundamentally redefine our species. The book questions central concepts such as free will, consciousness, and existential meaning in a world where data and algorithms are gaining growing power.
With provocative narrative and rigorous historical analysis, Harari offers a comparative perspective on how different religions and ideologies have shaped human reality, exploring how new power structures—tech corporations, nation-states, AI systems—may guide our near future. An essential meditation on where we are headed as a civilization.
