Sapiens

So what am I currently reading? Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind by Yuval Noah Harari. At Amazon it got 4.5/5 stars with 1,068 customer reviews and was their Amazon Best Book of the Month for February 2015. What do I think? I love it. But, not everyone will. The isn’t very patronizing to people who have very serious religious, poitical, economic, or social beliefs, implying that the existence of such constructs is simply an expedient way for larger and larger social communities to be able to function effectively. What do I think? I think it’s a very entertaining read and it’s probably good if you can get preople to question and ponder their perceptions of the world. Will my children read it? Nah. Their minds are far too imaginative and creative for the non-fiction crap that I read.
