Yuval Noah Harari Press Reviews
'Homo Deus will shock you. It will entertain you. Above all, it will make you think in ways you had not thought before.' -- Daniel Kahneman, author of Thinking Fast, and Slow
'Spellbinding... This is a very intelligent book, full of sharp insights and mordant wit... It is a quirky and cool book, with a sliver of ice at its heart... It is hard to imagine anyone could read this book without getting an occasional, vertiginous thrill.' -- David Runciman Guardian
'What elevates Harari above many chroniclers of our age is his exceptional clarity and focus.' -- Josh Glancy Sunday Times
'A remarkable book, full of insights and thoughtful reinterpretations of what we thought we knew about ourselves and our history... One measure of Harari's achievement is that one has to look a long way back - to 1934, in fact, the year when Lewis Mumford's Technics and Civilization was published - for a book with comparable ambition and scope.' -- John Naughton Guardian
