21 Lessons for the 21st Century
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.

Illuminating and somewhat frightful. Nonetheless is a must-read for everyone who feels curiosity about humankind from a wider perspective.

The first quarter of the book is necessary and terrifying to contemplate. Much of the rest of the book turns into a discussion of world religions that I found less relevant to the beginning thrust of the book. I also don’t usually like religious discussions by people that are mostly dismissive of religion. Not because I’m especially religious myself but the dismissals are often less interesting than say the nuanced explorations of Karen Armstrong or other religious scholars. Not my favorite of Harari’s books.
