Free Audiobook : Homo Deus, by Yuval Noah Harari

Throughout the last century, humanity has achieved what was once thought impossible by subduing famine, plague, and war. Harari, with his engaging and detailed analysis, reveals that these threats have shifted from being wild, unpredictable forces to problems we can tackle. Now, more people die from overconsumption than starvation; longevity outpaces death from disease; and suicide claims more lives than all forms of violence combined. The likelihood of an American dying from a fast food binge is 1,000 times higher than from a terrorist attack.

What will we pursue once we've managed these historic challenges? As we assume the role of gods on Earth, what new paths will we choose? Homo Deus delves into the future's possibilities, fears, and hopes - from defeating death to engineering life. It probes into existential questions about our direction and how we might safeguard our planet from our own potent capabilities. This is evolution's next chapter. This is Homo Deus.

With the insightful and lucid style that made Sapiens a global bestseller, Harari charts the course of our future.
