21 Lessons for the 21st Century

In A Brief History of Sapiens, he explored our past. In Homo Deus he looked into our future. One of the world’s most innovative thinkers looks to the present to understand today’s most pressing issues.
How will computers and robots change what it means to be human? How can we deal with the spread of fake news? Are nations and religions still relevant? What should we teach our children?
Yuval Noah Harari’s 21 Lessons for the 21st Century provides a thorough and visionary look at today’s most pressing issues as we venture into the unknowns of the future. This is what I considered. As technology advances faster than we can comprehend, hacking becomes a war tactic, and the world feels more polarized than ever, Harari says he will live life in the face of constant and disruptive change. It addresses challenges and raises important questions that we must face. To survive.
In 21 provocative, profound, and easy-to-read chapters, Harari builds on the ideas he has explored in his previous books to unpack political, technological, social, and existential questions and prepare for a future that is very different from the rest of the world. We offer advice on how to do so. We know we can prepare for how we can maintain our freedom of choice when big data is monitoring us? What will the future world of work look like and how should we prepare for it? How should we respond to the threat of terrorism? Why is liberal democracy in crisis?
Harari’s unique ability to understand where we come from and where we are going has captivated the imaginations of millions of readers. Here he invites us to reflect on values, meaning, and personal engagement in a world full of noise and uncertainty. When you are inundated with irrelevant information, clarity is power. 21 Lessons for the 21st Century is a must-read for its clear and easy-to-understand presentation of the complex challenges of our time.
