Description

By: Yuval Noah Harari | Illustrator:  David Casanave | Series: SAPIENS: A GRAPHIC HISTORY 


Sometimes history seems like a laundry list of malevolent monarchs, pompous presidents and dastardly dictators. But are they really the ones in the driving seat? Sapiens: A Graphic History - The Masters of History takes us on an immersive and hilarious ride through the human past to discover the forces that change our world, bring us together, and - just as often - tear us apart.

Grab a front-row seat to the greatest show on earth and explore the rise of money, religion and empire. Join our fabulous host Heroda Tush, as she wonders: which historical superhero will display the power to make civilisations rise and fall? Will Mr Random prove that luck and circumstance prevail? Will Lady Empire convince us of the irrefutable shaping force of conquerors? Or will Clashwoman beat them all to greatness by reminding us of the endless confrontations that seem to forever plague our species?

In this next volume of the bestselling graphic series, Yuval Noah Harari, David Vandermeulen and Daniel Casanave continue to present the complicated story of humankind with wit, empathy and originality. Alongside the unlikely cast of new characters, we are rejoined by the familiar faces of Yuval, Zoe, Professor Saraswati, Bill and Cindy (now Romans), Skyman and Captain Dollar. As they travel through time, space and human drama in search of truth, it's impossible not to wonder: why can't we all just get along?

This third instalment in the Sapiens: A Graphic History series is an engaging, insightful, and colourful retelling of the story of humankind for curious minds of all ages, and can be browsed through on its own or read in sequence with Volumes One and Two.

Praise for Yuval Noah Harari's Sapiens:

'I would recommend Sapiens to anyone who's interested in the history and future of our species.' Bill Gates

'Interesting and provocative . . . It gives you a sense of how briefly we've been on this Earth' Barack Obama

'Jaw-dropping from the first word to the last . . . It may be the best book I've ever read' Chris Evans

'Contains a remarkable piece of information on almost every page and reminds us that we should be grateful to be human.' Matt Haig

'Sweeps the cobwebs out of your brain . . . Radiates power and clarity, making the world strange and new' Sunday Times 'Provocative and fascinating and opinionated...it makes the familiar seem unfamiliar. It altered how I view our species and our world.' Guardian
