NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
Yuval Noah Harari, author of the critically-acclaimed New York Times bestseller and international phenomenon Sapiens, returns with an equally original, compelling, and provocative book, turning his focus toward humanity’s future, and our quest to upgrade humans into gods.
Over the past century humankind has managed to do the impossible and rein in famine, plague, and war. This may seem hard to accept, but, as Harari explains in his trademark style—thorough, yet riveting—famine, plague and war have been transformed from incomprehensible and uncontrollable forces of nature into manageable challenges. For the first time ever, more people die from eating too much than from eating too little; more people die from old age than from infectious diseases; and more people commit suicide than are killed by soldiers, terrorists and criminals put together. The average American is a thousand times more likely to die from binging at McDonalds than from being blown up by Al Qaeda.
What then will replace famine, plague, and war at the top of the human agenda? As the self-made gods of planet earth, what destinies will we set ourselves, and which quests will we undertake? Homo Deus explores the projects, dreams and nightmares that will shape the twenty-first century—from overcoming death to creating artificial life. It asks the fundamental questions: Where do we go from here? And how will we protect this fragile world from our own destructive powers? This is the next stage of evolution. This is Homo Deus.
With the same insight and clarity that made Sapiens an international hit and a New York Times bestseller, Harari maps out our future.
Prof. Yuval Noah Harari has a PhD in History from the University of Oxford and lectures at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, specializing in world history. His books have been translated into 50+ languages, with 12+ million copies sold worldwide. 'Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind' (2014) looked deep into our past, 'Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow' (2016) considered far-future scenarios, and '21 Lessons for the 21st Century' (2018) zoomed in on the biggest questions of the present moment.
想起Coursera一门耶鲁开的美国宪法课上教授说到,率先给予女性选举权的是西部的怀俄明和犹他州,因为男女人口差距悬殊,目的是吸引女性前来定居。人权当然是靠争取来的,但它并不天生正确,而是因为有需要。哲学推理不能证明人人生而平等,之所以认可是因为权衡之后还是这样比较好。古时未必没有诞生过人文主义者,只是没有发展的土壤。事情会发生是因为可以,不是因为正确,如果人类可以被抛弃,为什么不?会有新的理论来为此作支撑。
评分A must read. 表面上看起来是一本讲人类未来的书,但如作者自己所说,他并非在做预测,更不是危言耸听或者暗藏某个政治或者经济动机。更多的是作者结合目前人类科学和科技的发展、回顾人类历史和人性本身来探讨将来人类很有可能会面对的世界。感觉回到了大学时代,教授的智慧对话,引发学生思考。 It's philosophy, a warning,and a perfect way to engage everyone who cares to start a debate about humanity and future.
评分写历史水平的高低在于能否对同一历史事件的多角度观察。

花了12天时间,终于把尤瓦尔·赫拉利这部大作《未来简史》读完。之前在生物科学和人类历史这块知之甚少,也没读过他的另一大作《人类简史》。这个全新的视角让我脑洞打开惊为天人,一开始就被这未曾涉猎的知识区深深吸引,读时大呼过瘾。读完觉得必须好好回顾总结,复盘收获。 ...

评分昨日和朋友聊天,我们看到当下缤纷繁杂的世界,都希望能够做点事情。但是谈了许多之后,依旧没有一个清晰的结果。之后她问我,你到底想做什么?我说,不知道,最近看完《未来简史》之后,更是惘然,觉得一切都没有意义。 当然,这并非是说我有了轻生的念头,但那种感觉却是实...
评分《什么得数据得天下啊,基佬才是真正的世界统治者》 五天刷完。读《未来简史》的惊艳感,完全比不上读作者赫拉利第一本书《人类简史》的惊艳感,很大一部分原因是《未来简史》的很多信息和观点,其实都是《人类简史》的重组。 举几个例子逐步拆分: 序章《人类的新议题》里...
评分最近的中国中青年一代,内心那个叫苦,那个焦灼,以至于我刷朋友圈,感觉在看反乌托邦小说连载: 据说,三十来岁就可能失业了 貌似,创业十来年,还可能入坑“净身出户” 眼前的,居住的城市雾霾严重 近期的,卧槽,房价又TMD彪了,何处安放俺们的青春 进一步要考虑的,有房了...
