**THE MILLION COPY BESTSELLER**

Sapiens showed us where we came from. In our increasingly uncertain times, Homo Deus shows us where we're going.

The world-renowned historian and intellectual Yuval Noah Harari envisions a near future in which we face a new set of challenges. Homo Deus explores the projects, dreams and nightmares that will shape the twenty-first century and beyond - from overcoming death to creating artificial life.

It asks the fundamental questions: how can we protect this fragile world from our own destructive power? And what does our future hold?

'Homo Deus will shock you. It will entertain you. It will make you think in ways you had not thought before' Daniel Kahneman, bestselling author of Thinking, Fast and Slow

Primitive ideas as soon as he starts talking about consciousness you realize he has no real knowledge. David Bohm, Micheal Levin biology and J. Krishnamurti can lead you in the right direction. The tail wags the dog. Humans are not conscious they are just a host. Firstly get as much of your population ready to survive the flood. Stop lying and get your population up to speed on the true nature of things. Force evolution by getting humans to communicate in a telepathic nature ban dialog remove vocal cords if necessary. Knowledge and communication will be eventually placed in the field to be drawn apon when needed by the all. Presto social cohesion humans have ascended. You can not disconnect humans all together with a chip imagine having to control your breathing or asking a cut to heal instead of everything being automatic. It would be a nightmare and a step backwards.

I really liked his 1st book, but not this one. This book had several poorly formed arguments and smelt of politics.
