內容簡介

內容簡介 《紐約時報》讀者票選：二十一世紀百大好書這部全球暢銷、風靡國際的經典之作問世十週年，全新版本收錄哈拉瑞親筆撰寫的後記，再次奠定他作為當代最具影響力史學家的地位。十萬年前，地球上至少存在六種人類，如今僅剩我們——智人。人類是如何在爭奪主導地位的戰役中勝出？為何我們的狩獵採集祖先會聚集起來建立城市與王國？我們又是如何開始相信神祇、國家與人權；信任金錢、書籍與法律；甚至被官僚制度、時間表與消費主義所束縛？在未來的千年裡，我們的世界又將會是什麼模樣？在《人類大歷史》中，哈拉瑞教授橫跨整段人類歷程，從最早踏上地球的智人，到認知革命、農業革命與科學革命帶來的巨大——有時甚至是毀滅性的——突破。全書結合生物學、人類學、古生物學與經濟學的洞見，並穿插全彩插圖，探討歷史洪流如何塑造人類社會、我們周遭的動植物，甚至影響我們的性格。我們是否有可能擺脫祖先遺留的行為模式？我們又能否改變未來幾個世紀的走向？ 大膽、廣博且發人深省，《人類大歷史》融合歷史與科學，挑戰我們對「身為人類」的所有既定認知：關於思想、行為、傳承……以及未來。New York Times Readers’ Pick: Top 100 Books of the 21st CenturyThe 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.
