Sapiens: A Graphic History, Volume 4

release date: Nov 03, 2026
Sapiens: A Graphic History, Volume 4
The fourth and final volume in the Sapiens: A Graphic History series—the illustrated adaptation of the internationally bestselling phenomenon—is a magnificent whistlestop tour through the scientific and industrial revolutions during which rapid scientific advancements transform the social order, usher in modern capitalism, and lead us to our own technological age and the dawn of artificial intelligence. Until 1500 AD, Homo sapiens had reached a plateau of medical, military, and economic power, focusing their resources on preserving a social order that had existed for centuries. So, how did we go from medieval scrolls to ebooks; abacuses to computers? From the Santa Maria to nuclear subs; the earth to the moon? As Yuval Noah Harari shows, the key to jumpstarting the Scientific Revolution was one major discovery: ignorance. Ignorance—coupled with curiosity—drove the pursuit to acquire new knowledge. This pursuit kicked off an endless cycle spurred by science, politics, and capitalism—a feedback loop that has brought us to the brink of a new sort of intelligence poised to supersede humanity as we know it. Grafting onto Part 4 of the original Sapiens book, Sapiens: A Graphic History, Volume 4 examines how a shift toward scientific thinking has transformed human history. In the sixteenth century, science overtook religion and philosophy as the dominant way of understanding the world—fueling imperialism and colonialism, the Industrial Revolution, and the unraveling of old social and political structures. These revolutions resulted in scientific and technological inventions ad infinitum, each new discovery both a tool and a weapon. Taking us from the sixteenth century through today, Volume 4 also looks ahead, asking how breakthroughs like artificial intelligence might transform human consciousness and the future of our species. Like the three volumes before it, this final installment in the Sapiens: A Graphic History series is an engaging, insightful, and colorful retelling of the story of humankind for curious minds of all ages. Once again, Yuval Noah Harari, David Vandermeulen, and Daniel Casanave present the complicated story of humankind with wit, empathy, and originality. This final volume can be browsed through on its own or read in sequence with the previous books.

Sapiens [Tenth Anniversary Edition]

Sapiens [Tenth Anniversary Edition]
New York Times Readers’ Pick: Top 100 Books of the 21st Century The tenth anniversary edition of the internationally bestselling phenomenon that cemented Yuval Noah Harari as one of the most prominent historians of our time—featuring a new afterword from the author. One hundred thousand years ago, at least six human species inhabited the earth. Today there is just one. Us. Homo sapiens. How did our species succeed in the battle for dominance? Why did our foraging ancestors come together to create cities and kingdoms? How did we come to believe in gods, nations, and human rights; to trust money, books, and laws; and to be enslaved by bureaucracy, timetables, and consumerism? And what will our world be like in the millennia to come? In Sapiens, Professor Yuval Noah Harari spans the whole of human history, from the very first humans to walk the earth to the radical—and sometimes devastating—breakthroughs of the Cognitive, Agricultural, and Scientific Revolutions. Drawing on insights from biology, anthropology, paleontology, and economics, and incorporating full-color illustrations throughout the text, he explores how the currents of history have shaped our human societies, the animals and plants around us, and even our personalities. Can we ever free our behavior from the legacy of our ancestors? And what, if anything, can we do to influence the course of the centuries to come? Bold, wide-ranging, and provocative, Sapiens integrates history and science to challenge everything we thought we knew about being human: our thoughts, our actions, our heritage...and our future.

Sapiens. Da animali a dèi (Nuova edizione decennale)
Con una nuova postfazione di Yuval Noah Harari, che riflette sui nuovi sviluppi dell''ultimo decennio. Centomila anni fa almeno sei specie di umani abitavano la Terra. Erano animali insignificanti, il cui impatto sul pianeta non era superiore a quello di gorilla, lucciole o meduse. Oggi sulla Terra c''è una sola specie di umani. Noi: Homo sapiens. E siamo i signori del pianeta. Il segreto del nostro successo è l''immaginazione. Siamo gli unici animali capaci di parlare di cose che esistono solo nelle nostre fantasie: come le divinità, le nazioni, le leggi e i soldi. Sapiens. Breve storia dell''umanità spiega come ci siamo associati per creare città, regni e imperi; come abbiamo costruito la fiducia nei soldi, nei libri e nelle leggi; come ci siamo ritrovati schiavi della burocrazia, del consumismo e della ricerca della felicità.

Nexus (edizione italiana)
La storia di come le reti di informazione hanno fatto e disfatto il nostro mondo. Dall''autore del bestseller mondiale Sapiens. Negli ultimi centomila anni, noi Sapiens abbiamo accumulato un enorme potere. Eppure, nonostante tutte le nostre scoperte, invenzioni e conquiste, oggi ci troviamo in una crisi esistenziale. Il mondo è sull''orlo del collasso ecologico. La disinformazione dilaga. E ci stiamo buttando a capofitto nell''era dell''intelligenza artificiale, una nuova rete di informazioni che minaccia di annientarci. Perché siamo così autodistruttivi? Nexus ci porta a guardare attraverso la lente della storia umana per considerare come il flusso di informazioni ha plasmato noi e il nostro mondo. Partendo dall''età della pietra, passando per la canonizzazione della Bibbia, la caccia alle streghe della prima età moderna, lo stalinismo, il nazismo e la rinascita del populismo di oggi, Yuval Noah Harari ci chiede di considerare il complesso rapporto tra informazione e verità, burocrazia e mitologia, saggezza e potere. Esplora come le diverse società e i sistemi politici nel corso della storia hanno utilizzato le informazioni per raggiungere i loro obiettivi, nel bene e nel male. E ci consente di affrontare con maggior consapevolezza le scelte urgenti che ci attendono oggi che l''intelligenza non umana minaccia la nostra stessa esistenza. L''informazione non è la materia prima della verità né una semplice arma. Nexus esplora la via di mezzo tra questi estremi e, nel farlo, riscopre la nostra comune umanità.

Sapiens. de Animales a Dioses (Edición Especial 10o Aniversario) / Sapiens: a Br Ief History of Humankind
De un renombrado historiador llega una narrativa innovadora sobre la creación y evolución de la humanidad, un bestseller internacional número uno, que explora las formas en que la biología y la historia nos han definido y mejorado nuestra comprensión de lo que significa ser "humano". Hace cien mil años, al menos seis especies diferentes de humanos habitaban la Tierra. Sin embargo, hoy sólo existe uno: el homo sapiens. Que le paso a los otros? ¿Y qué nos puede pasar? La mayoría de los libros sobre la historia de la humanidad siguen un enfoque histórico o biológico, pero el Dr. Yuval Noah Harari rompe el molde con este libro muy original que comienza hace unos 70.000 años con la aparición de la cognición moderna. Desde examinar el papel que han desempeñado los humanos en evolución en el ecosistema global hasta trazar el surgimiento de los imperios, Sapiens integra la historia y la ciencia para reconsiderar narrativas aceptadas, conectar desarrollos pasados con preocupaciones contemporáneas y examinar eventos específicos dentro del contexto de ideas más amplias. Harari también nos obliga a mirar hacia adelante, porque en las últimas décadas los humanos han comenzado a alterar las leyes de la selección natural que han gobernado la vida durante los últimos cuatro mil millones de años. Estamos adquiriendo la capacidad de diseñar no sólo el mundo que nos rodea, sino también a nosotros mismos. ¿A dónde nos lleva esto y en qué queremos llegar a ser? Con 27 fotografías, 6 mapas y 25 ilustraciones/diagramas, este trabajo provocativo y revelador seguramente generará debate y es una lectura esencial para los aficionados a Jared Diamond, James Gleick, Matt Ridley, Robert Wright y Sharon Moalem.

Sapiens: A Graphic History, Volume 2
The ebook is designed to be read on devices with large color displays The Kindle edition is incompatible with iOS. See below for a list of supported devices. This second volume of Sapiens: A Graphic History, the full-color graphic adaptation of Yuval Noah Harari’s #1 New York Times bestseller, focuses on the Agricultural Revolution—when humans fell into a trap we’ve yet to escape: working harder and harder with diminishing returns. What if humanity’s major woes—war, plague, famine and inequality—originated 12,000 years ago, when Homo sapiens converted from nomads to settlers, in pursuit of the fantasy of productivity and efficiency? What if by seeking to control plants and animals, humans ended up being controlled by kings, priests, and Kafkaesque bureaucracy? Volume 2 of Sapiens: A Graphic History–The Pillars of Civilization explores a crucial chapter in human development: the Agricultural Revolution. This is the story of how wheat took over the world; how an unlikely marriage between a god and a bureaucrat created the first empires; and how war, plague, famine, and inequality became an intractable feature of the human condition. But it’s not all doom and gloom with this book’s cast of entertaining characters and colorful humorous scenes. Yuval, Zoe, Prof. Saraswati, Cindy and Bill (now farmers), Detective Lopez, and Dr. Fiction, all introduced in Volume 1, once again travel the length and breadth of human history, this time investigating the impact the Agricultural Revolution has had on our species. The cunning Mephisto shows them how to ensnare humans, King Hammurabi lays down the law, and Confucius explains harmonious society. The origins of modern farming are introduced through Elizabethan tragedy; the changing fortunes of domesticated plants and animals are tracked in the columns of the Daily Business News; the story of urbanization is portrayed as a travel brochure, offering discount journeys to ancient Babylon and China; and the history of inequality unfolds in a superhero detective story; with guest appearances by historical and cultural personalities throughout such as Thomas Jefferson, Scarlett O'Hara, Margaret Thatcher, and John Lennon. Sapiens: A Graphic History, Volume 2 is a radical, witty and colorful retelling of the story of humankind for adults and young adults, and can be read on its own or in sequence with Volume I.

Sapiens. I pilastri della civiltà
IL SECONDOVOLUME DELLA VERSIONE ILLUSTRATA DEL BESTSELLER INTERNAZIONALE SULLA STORIA DELL''UOMO. Quando Homo sapiens addomesticò alcuni animali e certe piante, poté abbandonare lo stile di vita nomade per adottarne uno sedentario. Vivere insieme agli altri stimolò la nascita di credenze e miti condivisi. Grazie a un immaginario comune i gruppi umani, nel frattempo accresciuti di numero, si lanciarono in progetti sempre più ambiziosi come la fondazione di città e regni, dando vita alle prime civiltà della storia. Questo secondo volume del graphic novel tratto dal bestseller Sapiens. Da animali a dèi continua la narrazione là dove Yuval Noah Harari l''aveva lasciata: Homo sapiens è l''unico a essere sopravvissuto all''estinzione delle altre specie umane e di gran parte dei grandi mammiferi, ed è pronto a conquistare il mondo. Ma si trattò davvero di una marcia trionfale? A questa domanda risponderà un gruppo assai eterogeneo di personaggi, tra cui lo stesso prof. Harari, che con autoironia interpreta se stesso, Doctor Fiction, con una passione a tratti pericolosa per le finzioni e i miti collettivi, il diabolico Mefistofele, che nei panni di un''umile spiga di grano cambierà il destino dell''uomo, la rigorosa ma non sempre equa Lady Justice, e infine l''acuto e gentile avvocato praghese Franz K. che ci aiuterà a vedere al di là del labirinto di regole in cui ci muoviamo – o rimaniamo intrappolati. Con Sapiens. I pilastri della civiltà l''analisi storica di Harari trova nel brio narrativo del racconto a fumetti un adattamento divertente e intelligente che non mancherà di entusiasmare tutti gli appassionati del cammino dell''uomo dall''antichità ai giorni nostri.

Featuring 256 pages of full-colour illustrations and easy-to-understand text covering the first part of the full-length original edition, this adaptation of the mind-expanding book furthers the ongoing conversation as it introduces Harari's ideas to a wider new readership.

Homo Deus: História Breve do Amanhã
Ensaio que explora os projetos, sonhos e pesadelos que vão dar forma ao século XXI, da erradicação da fome ao fim da guerra, passando pela vida artificial. Chegámos ao próximo passo evolucional: Homo Deus. Homo Deus explora os projetos, sonhos e pesadelos que darão forma ao século XXI - desde o vencer da morte à vida artificial. Sucessor do bestseller internacional Sapiens: História Breve da Humanidade, coloca as questões fundamentais: para onde seguir a partir daqui? Como proteger o mundo dos poderes destrutivos do ser humano? A guerra desapareceu. É mais provável cometer suicídio do que morrer num conflito armado. A fome está a desaparecer. É mais alto o risco de obesidade do que de fome. A morte tornou-se um simples problema técnico. Não alcançámos a igualdade - mas estamos perto de alcançar a imortalidade. A história começou quando os homens inventaram os deuses e terminará quando os homens se transformarem em deuses. O que nos reserva o futuro? «De uma lucidez invejável (e alarmante), descreve os enormes desafios que temos pela frente, enquanto espécie, à medida que a tecnologia genética, a inteligência artificial e a robótica alteram profundamente as nossas relações humanas e com outras espécies. Uma leitura ainda mais voraz e importante do que a do seu já excelente Sapiens.» Kazuo Ishiguro, Prémio Nobel de Literatura 2017
