Rezensionen

I would recommend Sapiens to anyone who's interested in the history and future of our species Bill Gates

"[I]nteresting and provocative...It gives you a sense of perspective on how briefly we've been on this earth, how short things like agriculture and science have been around, and why it makes sense for us to not take them for granted." President Barack Obama
