This work by the celebrated Israeli historian and one of today's most influential global intellectuals, Yuval Noah Harari, represents the third and pivotal instalment of the author’s informal macro-historical trilogy. While his worldwide bestsellers Sapiens and Homo Deus explored humanity's past and distant technological future, Harari shifts his focus in this volume to the most pressing issues of the present moment. Across twenty-one chapters, the author dissects the complex socio-political realities of our age in a lucid and accessible style, tackling challenges such as the rise of artificial intelligence and workforce automation, the epidemic of fake news, the crisis of liberal democracy, the threats of nuclear war and ecological collapse, and the resurgence of nationalism and religious fundamentalism. Rather than offering simple solutions, this book serves as an indispensable intellectual compass and a call for global introspection, helping the reader distinguish the essential from the trivial in a world overwhelmed by informational noise. This copy features a striking, visually distinct cover design centred on the motif of a human iris, symbolising the need for a clearer perception of the world around us. It is a premier title in contemporary non-fiction, sociology, and philosophy which, given its global relevance, remains essential reading for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the dynamics of the 21st century.
