| book description |
This fourth and final installment of the epic graphic adaptation of the internationally bestselling phenomenon follows the revolutions that made modern humanity what it is today, and begs the question: what will we become? Five hundred years ago humankind made a startling discovery. We discovered our own collective ignorance. Determined to finally uncover the secrets of the universe, modern humans have learned how to control the world and how to produce more of everything. But did modernity make us any happier? Sapiens: A Graphic History - The Age of Revolutions takes us on a riveting ride from the Scientific Revolution through the Industrial Revolution to the dawn of the AI Revolution. In between, we find out why the Roman army never invested much in R&D, how banks create money out of thin air, how clocks came to rule our lives, and why despite unprecedented abundance humans are still so dissatisfied. Join Skyman, Mx. Computer, and Death on the psychiatrist's couch, as they deal with humanity's quest for omniscience and immortality. Follow the passionate affair between Lady Empire and Scientifik, as together they seek to conquer all the blank spaces on the map. And jump on board with Detective Lopez as she unravels a worldwide conspiracy to break the laws of biology. In this thrilling conclusion to the graphic adaptation of Yuval Noah Harari's bestselling book, humanity faces its most pressing challenge ever: figuring out how to control an alien intelligence. Will we succeed? Or will we become trapped inside the dreams of smart machines? Brimming with wit, insight, and inventive visuals, this final volume in the series reveals how humans became the irresponsible gods of planet earth, and how we can make wiser and more compassionate choices in future.
