Professor Harari was born in Haifa, Israel, to Lebanese parents in 1976. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Oxford in 2002, and is now a lecturer at the Department of History, the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
He specialized in World History, medieval history and military history. His current research focuses on macro-historical questions: What is the relation between history and biology? What is the essential difference between Homo sapiens and other animals? Is there justice in history? Does history have a direction? Did people become happier as history unfolded?
Prof. Harari also teaches a MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) titled A Brief History of Humankind.
Prof. Harari twice won the Polonsky Prize for Creativity and Originality, in 2009 and 2012. In 2011 he won the Society for Military History’s Moncado Award for outstanding articles in military history.
In Sapiens, he explored our past. In Homo Deus, he looked to our future. Now, one of the most innovative thinkers on the planet turns to the present to make sense of today's most pressing issues.
How do computers and robots change the meaning of being human? How do we deal with the epidemic of fake news? Are nations and religions still relevant? What should we teach our children?
Yuval Noah Harari's 21 Lessons for the 21st Century is a probing and visionary investigation into today's most urgent issues as we move into the uncharted territory of the future. As technology advances faster than our understanding of it, hacking becomes a tactic of war, and the world feels more polarized than ever, Harari addresses the challenge of navigating life in the face of constant and disorienting change and raises the important questions we need to ask ourselves in order to survive.
In twenty-one accessible chapters that are both provocative and profound, Harari builds on the ideas explored in his previous books, untangling political, technological, social, and existential issues and offering advice on how to prepare for a very different future from the world we now live in: How can we retain freedom of choice when Big Data is watching us? What will the future workforce look like, and how should we ready ourselves for it? How should we deal with the threat of terrorism? Why is liberal democracy in crisis?
Harari's unique ability to make sense of where we have come from and where we are going has captured the imaginations of millions of readers. Here he invites us to consider values, meaning, and personal engagement in a world full of noise and uncertainty. When we are deluged with irrelevant information, clarity is power. Presenting complex contemporary challenges clearly and accessibly, 21 Lessons for the 21st Century is essential reading.
预定了这本书,想必会满意,至少也是颇值得一读。毕竟《人类简史》和《未来简史》震撼到我了,作者的学识和洞见令人印象深刻。 只是,人家书名明明是《21 Lessons for the 21st Century》,你翻译的副标题《 人类命运大议题 》也就罢了,非要凑热度“简史”再弄个《今日简史》...

有笑話說:隻有兩種人敢對這世上所有事情誇誇其談,一種是經濟學傢,另一種是白癡,但總分不清前後者。我覺得可以加第三種:曆史學傢瞭。Yuval深諳暢銷之道:provocative加一點點witty。但我覺得把這些熱搜話題放到曆史大視角去再看也挺好的。quick read
评分writing真好
评分一本不如一本,很多內容如果看過前兩本的話,都是炒冷飯(其實第二本的前100頁也都是炒第一本的冷飯)不過也閤理,總不能要求全部人都按著順序三本讀下來,總要給點context。就算是這樣,裏麵還是有很多很多很有趣的觀點!highlight瞭很多。但是最後一張居然讓大傢禪修和打坐(好啦,其實是冥想)真的很虛瞭。我沒有這個境界!!
评分All too familiar. All too agreeable. 所以趕忙找一本Intellectuals and society齣來給自己敲敲鍾。
评分整本書感覺還是太空洞. 很多小essays串起來的, 質量參差不齊, 有的章讀起來還算有趣 (例子好). 講瞭半天最後收斂到瞭meditation這種玄乎的東西上麵瞭, 也沒拿齣個辦法. 叫做*lessons*太過瞭. 也許適閤科普給中小學生看看...
