In Sapiens, he explored our past. In Homo Deus, he looked to our future. Now, one of the most innovative thinkers on the planet turns to the present to make sense of today's most pressing issues.
How do computers and robots change the meaning of being human? How do we deal with the epidemic 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 is a probing and visionary investigation into today's most urgent issues as we move into the uncharted territory of the future. As technology advances faster than our understanding of it, hacking becomes a tactic of war, and the world feels more polarized than ever, Harari addresses the challenge of navigating life in the face of constant and disorienting change and raises the important questions we need to ask ourselves in order to survive.
In twenty-one accessible chapters that are both provocative and profound, Harari builds on the ideas explored in his previous books, untangling political, technological, social, and existential issues and offering advice on how to prepare for a very different future from the world we now live in: How can we retain freedom of choice when Big Data is watching us? What will the future workforce look like, and how should we ready ourselves for it? How should we deal with the threat of terrorism? Why is liberal democracy in crisis?
Harari's unique ability to make sense of where we have come from and where we are going has captured the imaginations of millions of readers. Here he invites us to consider values, meaning, and personal engagement in a world full of noise and uncertainty. When we are deluged with irrelevant information, clarity is power. Presenting complex contemporary challenges clearly and accessibly, 21 Lessons for the 21st Century is essential reading.

Professor Harari was born in Haifa, Israel, to Lebanese parents in 1976. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Oxford in 2002, and is now a lecturer at the Department of History, the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
He specialized in World History, medieval history and military history. His current research focuses on macro-historical questions: What is the relation between history and biology? What is the essential difference between Homo sapiens and other animals? Is there justice in history? Does history have a direction? Did people become happier as history unfolded?
Prof. Harari also teaches a MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) titled A Brief History of Humankind.
Prof. Harari twice won the Polonsky Prize for Creativity and Originality, in 2009 and 2012. In 2011 he won the Society for Military History’s Moncado Award for outstanding articles in military history.

It's a fun reading experience. I especially like the chapter where Yuval talks about the meaning of life, both entertaining and insightful. Followed thestyle on Sapiens, this one is also full of sarca...It's a fun reading experience.

预定了这本书，想必会满意，至少也是颇值得一读。毕竟《人类简史》和《未来简史》震撼到我了，作者的学识和洞见令人印象深刻。 只是，人家书名明明是《21 Lessons for the 21st Century》，你翻译的副标题《 人类命运大议题 》也就罢了，非要凑热度“简史”再弄个《今日简史》...

那些奇怪本书最后为什么是禅修的人根本就没有看懂Yuval——他的根本思想就是佛学的，他的第一本书，就像力学对数学来讲是应用数学一样，他的人类学简直可以说是应用佛学。当然，如果你眼中的佛学是烧香求佛观音送子，那么我们说的不是一件事。甚至也不是说不得讲不清的禅理，看不见摸不着的开悟。

非常笼统片面，也没有吸引力，很多章节感觉就是为写而写（比如一定要凑上21 lessons）。前两本沾着进化与历史还算有些信息量，这本简直是个人意识流了。

看了序言之后发现不能盲目读下去了，结果上豆瓣一看，果然是内个味，还好没华宝贵的时间继续往下读。

观点七零八落。五年之后尤瓦尔赫拉利回看这本书，会觉得自己写得过于飘吗？最后一章落在meditation，好像说了这么多，meditation is the only way to go. A bit sad.

和前面两本一样，依旧觉得很好看。这本更贴近现代的生活，提到的战争宗教社交媒体都更加地贴近当下的话题。其中告诉了我们其实人的思想是很容易被操纵的，意识到这一点才能思考自己的行为是否出于自己的真实愿望，还是出于文化社会宗教所引导我们的。

印象最深的是冥想这一章节，要开始规律练习冥想了！

跟homo dues有很多重叠。真是一本不如一本。question and concern讲的还有点道理，当然不少以偏概全。所有的suggestioj都是一厢情愿的假设。
