Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind: The multi-million copy bestseller

It is a good book and good for people who like history, there is nothing wrong with this book and it's very awesome tbh. Also the thing is I have not performed good at my history exams so this gives some sheer knowledge NGL, the only reason why this gets a 3 star review is because I love maths,physics and chemistry and History is not really me favourite subject hehe

When you have already understood after the first example, then it comes five more. When he finally gets to the point, you have stopped listening. When he is trying to make every sentence extraordinary and fantastic. When things really far away from the subject is told, just because it is a story in itself. When cliffhangers are way over used. When the logic sometimes is really far-fetched. If you like these things, read Harari. Otherwise, stay away from this book.

The conciseness of the book is eclipsed by the factual errors, the inconsistencies and the careless speculation. To give a few examples:- 1. The agricultural revolution is described as "humanity's greatest fraud" but the evidence for hunter gatherer societies being happier than farming ones is flimsy at best. 2. The success of Europe over Asia is almost entirely ascribed to 'superior' social values without mentioning the political turmoil in Asia or any other factor which would erode the author's narrative.
