Publisher's Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
The audiobook edition of 21 Lessons for the 21st Century by Yuval Noah Harari, read by Derek Perkins.
The No.1 best seller.
In 21 bite-sized lessons, Yuval Noah Harari explores what it means to be human in an age of bewilderment.
How can we protect ourselves from nuclear war, ecological cataclysms and technological disruptions? What can we do about the epidemic of fake news or the threat of terrorism? What should we teach our children?
Yuval Noah Harari takes us on a thrilling journey through today’s most urgent issues. The golden thread running through his exhilarating new book is the challenge of maintaining our collective and individual focus in the face of constant and disorienting change.
Are we still capable of understanding the world we have created?

One of the best book so far..
I must say after reading both Sapiens and Homo Deus, I was a bit skeptical on what more Yuval can bring on the table but definitely did justice by bringing out a lot of sensitive topics like immigration and giving logical explanation and stating views of all the stakeholders. His books can be kept as textbooks for young generation. Derek's narration was also beautiful.

Human Identity and AI
The thoughts presented helped me to think differently.
I am just my body and my breath.
The same as any other body and breath. We see ourselves as a collectives who believe in the same stories, trying to give meaning to our individual lives in the collective. At the end though it is not the collective that suffers it is the individual.
The narration of Derek Perkins made the book easier to understand.

Meditation
We should do meditation to understand ourselves. The narration is excellent. I wonder how it would have felt if Yuval read out the book himself.

Details and information about everything human.
Wasn't expecting the context to be so detailed. Initially, the book is about future and what can happen under AI and other advancements which propel humans further. It can go sideways, in any of the upcoming years. But, the conclusion is very delightful, focusing on how propaganda is built and misinformation is dealt to the masses.
Loved the conclusion and the book.
