In Sapiens, Harari explored our past. In Homo Deus, he envisioned the future. Now, one of the most innovative thinkers on the planet turns to the present and the critical issues of the modern world.

How are computers and robots changing the meaning of human existence? How is the epidemic of fake news being addressed? Do nations and religions still matter? What should we be teaching our children?

As technology evolves faster than our perception of it, hacking becomes a tactical warfare, and the world seems more polarized than ever, we are called to navigate our lives in the uncharted waters of the future, amidst continuous and disorienting changes. Harari responds to the challenge.

In twenty-one accessible chapters of this book, he highlights the critical questions we need to ask ourselves in order to survive in a world very different from the one we live in now. Drawing on ideas he introduced in his previous works, he unravels the most complex political, technological, social, and existential issues:

How can we maintain some freedom of choice when we are being watched by Big Data? What will tomorrow's workforce look like? How is the threat of terrorism being addressed? Why is liberal democracy in crisis?

Harari's unique ability to show where we come from and where we are going has captured the imagination of millions of readers. Here, he invites us to rethink the values we hold, the meaning of life, and our personal positioning in a world filled with noise and uncertainty. Because when one is overwhelmed by irrelevant information, clarity is power.
