Bøger af Yuval Noah Harari

For 100.000 år siden var Jorden beboet af mindst seks menneskearter. I dag er der kun en tilbage: Os. Homo sapiens. Hvorfor endte lige præcis vores art med at herske over kloden? Hvordan kunne vores jæger- og samlerforfædre enes om at bygge byer og skabe kongeriger? Hvorfor begyndte vi at tro på guder, nationer og menneskerettigheder? At have tillid til penge, bøger og love? Og være slaver af bureaukrati, tidsplaner og forbrugerisme? Og hvordan vil vores verden udvikle sig i det næste årtusinde?Modigt og provokerende udfordrer SAPIENS alt det, vi troede, vi vidste om at være menneske: vores overbevisninger, vores handlinger, vores magt … og vores fremtid.

Yuval Noah Harari udforsker i denne nervepirrende bog 21 aktuelle emner. Han undersøger, hvordan man som kollektiv og som individ kan forstå og håndtere nutidens konstante og forvirrende forandringer. Hvordan kan vi beskytte os mod atomkrig, naturkatastrofer og ny teknologi? Hvad kan vi gøre ved fake news-epidemien eller terrortruslen? Hvad bør vi lære vores børn? Er vi overhovedet stadig i stand til at forstå den verden, vi har skabt? 21 ting du bør vide om det 21. århundrede er en udforskning af, hvad det betyder at være menneske i en forvirrende tidsalder.

I løbet af de sidste 100.000 år har vi – Sapiens – fået en enorm magt. Men på trods af alle vores opdagelser, opfindelser og erobringer befinder vi os nu i en eksistentiel krise. Verden står på randen af et økologisk kollaps. De internationale og politiske spændinger stiger. Og vi stormer hovedkulds ind i den kunstige intelligens’ tidsalder – et fremmed informationsnetværk, der truer med at udslette os. Hvorfor er vi – på trods af alt, hvad vi har opnået – så selvdestruktive?Nexus kigger tilbage gennem menneskets lange historie for at blive klogere på, hvordan informationsstrømme har bragt os hertil. Yuval Noah Harari tager os fra stenalderen gennem kanoniseringen af Bibelen, opfindelsen af trykpressen, fremkomsten af massemedier og den nylige genopblussen af populismen og undersøger det komplekse forhold mellem information og sandhed, bureaukrati og mytologi, visdom og magt. Han udforsker, hvordan systemer som Romerriget, den katolske kirke og Sovjetunionen på godt og ondt har brugt information til at opnå deres mål. Og han beskriver de afgørende valg, vi står overfor, når ikkemenneskelig intelligens truer selve vores eksistens.

The story of how information networks have made, and unmade, our world from the #1 Sunday Times bestselling author of Sapiens. For the last 100,000 years, humans have accumulated enormous power. But despite all our discoveries, inventions and conquests, we now find ourselves in an existential crisis. The world is on the verge of ecological collapse. Misinformation abounds. And we are rushing headlong into the age of AI - a new information network that threatens to annihilate us. If we are so wise, why are we so self-destructive?NEXUS considers how the flow of information has shaped us, and our world. Taking us from the Stone Age through the Bible, early modern witch-hunts, Stalinism, Nazism and the resurgence of populism today, Yuval Noah Harari asks us to consider the complex relationship between information and truth, bureaucracy and mythology, wisdom and power. He explores how different societies and political systems have wielded information to achieve their goals, for good and ill. And he addresses the urgent choices we face as non-human intelligence threatens our very existence. Information is not the raw material of truth; neither is it a mere weapon. NEXUS explores the hopeful middle ground between these extremes, and of rediscovering our shared humanity.

Tras el éxito de Sapiens. De animales a dioses, Yuval Noah Harari vuelve su mirada al futuro para ver hacia dónde nos dirigimos.La guerra es algo obsoleto. Es más probable quitarse la vida que morir en un conflicto bélico.La hambruna está desapareciendo. Es más habitual sufrir obesidad que pasar hambre.La muerte es solo un problema técnico. Adiós igualdad. Hola inmortalidad.¿Qué nos depara el futuro?Yuval Noah Harari, autor bestseller de Sapiens. De animales a dioses, augura un mundo no tan lejano en el cual nos veremos enfrentados a una nueva serie de retos. Homo Deus explora los proyectos, los sueños y las pesadillas que irán moldeando el siglo XXI -desde superar la muerte hasta la creación de la inteligencia artificial.- Cuando tu Smartphone te conozca mejor de lo que te conoces a ti mismo, ¿seguirás escogiendo tu trabajo, a tu pareja y a tu presidente?- Cuando la inteligencia artificial nos desmarque del mercado laboral, ¿encontrarán los millones de desempleados algún tipo de significado en las drogas o los juegos virtuales?- Cuando los cuerpos y cerebros sean productos de diseño, ¿cederá la selección natural el paso al diseño inteligente?Esto es el futuro de la evolución. Esto es Homo Deus.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONWith the same insight and clarity that made Sapiens an international hit and a New York Times bestseller, Harari maps out our future.Over the past century humankind has managed to do the impossible and rein in famine, plague, and war. This may seem hard to accept, but, as Harari explains in his trademark style—thorough, yet riveting—famine, plague and war have been transformed from incomprehensible and uncontrollable forces of nature into manageable challenges. For the first time ever, more people die from eating too much than from eating too little; more people die from old age than from infectious diseases; and more people commit suicide than are killed by soldiers, terrorists and criminals put together. The average American is a thousand times more likely to die from binging at McDonalds than from being blown up by Al Qaeda.What then will replace famine, plague, and war at the top of the human agenda? As the self-made gods of planet earth, what destinies will we set ourselves, and which quests will we undertake? Homo Deus explores the projects, dreams and nightmares that will shape the twenty-first century—from overcoming death to creating artificial life. It asks the fundamental questions: Where do we go from here? And how will we protect this fragile world from our own destructive powers? This is the next stage of evolution. This is Homo Deus.

The author of the international bestseller Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind looks at covert operations and assassination plots in the medieval period, matching anything to be found in our own era.
