Talk about A Brief History of Mankind: What did you get out of the book?

Knowing the whole process of human development, knowing that there are many accidental factors in the development of history, that every era has the ideological limitations of each era, and that we have figured out what capitalism and credit are all about, with the development of science and technology, the evolution of human beings in the future may depend on machines, or through genetic modification, so that human evolution can develop to a level that we cannot imagine.

This book jumps out of the category of human beings themselves, and examines human beings as an animal on the earth, human beings have both animal nature and social nature, animal nature is nothing more than how human beings defeat other species, species competition, and sociality is the competition within human beings, through some necessary subject view, people are divided into three, six, nine and so on, and redistribute resources, which is the cruel world.

Knowing the meaning of happiness and life, this is a book of personal happiness exploration, which is worth reading.

Independent thinking is one of the distinct impressions I get from reading A Brief History of Mankind, and the other striking impression is that this book is a cognitive change that is universally admired by readers.

A Brief History of Mankind not only provides the unknown beyond the circle, but also tells readers about the new knowledge within the known circle, which refreshes my view of human history.

If we don't look at the present from a vast time span, we still think that what is in front of us is the whole truth of the world.

If you really understand the author's trilogy, you will feel nihilistic, fearful, anxious, and it doesn't matter if it's just taken out of context, but it can be elevated.

There is an interesting point in A Brief History of Mankind: it was not humans who domesticated wheat, but wheat who domesticated humans. Nowadays, smartphones are everywhere, and parents, friends and children can have a debate competition:

Is it the person who controls the phone, or the phone that controls the person?

"A Brief History of Mankind" tells the story of how human beings developed from prehistoric times to what they are today, and wants to tell the world how we humans came to be, and how we will develop in the future.

It tells the history of mankind from the beginning of the signs of life 100,000 years ago to the intertwining of capital and technology in the 21st century, and wants to tell the world to know where they came from and find lessons from history.

Interpreting human history does not list historical facts, but combines knowledge from anthropology, ecology, genetics, psychology, religion and other fields to tell you why those historical facts happened.

It describes the evolution and development history of human beings from the Stone Age to the 21st century, and divides human history into four stages: cognitive revolution, agricultural revolution, human integration and unification, and scientific revolution.

A Brief History of Mankind: From Animals to God is a historical book by Yuval Harari, first published in 2012.

Background of creation

During his studies at Jesus College, Oxford, Harari specialized in medieval and military history and published several books on the history of war. After these micro- and meso-historical trainings, Harari turned to a very macro study of world history, and was particularly interested in physics, chemistry, biology, anthropology, ecology, and political science.

From the perspective of cultural studies and psychology, we will make a comprehensive investigation and ** of the ins and outs of Homo sapiens as a species and even the entire human society. A Brief History of Mankind: From Animals to God is both the first result of his work and Harari's understanding of history and life.

Books have indelible traces in our lives, it has been around us since childhood, and has brought us a lot of influences, we have been exposed to books since elementary school, it affects our lives, allows us to understand various truths, makes us see the vast world, and breaks through our own cognition. The first book I read that broke through the perception was A Brief History of Mankind, and here are some of my personal knowledge.

After reading a brief history of mankind, I was impressed by the author's profound understanding of things, and the ** of everything today has its reasons, which are all derived from the continuous evolution of the times. Homo sapiens went from being an inconspicuous animal to the master who now dominates the world, not only as a result of natural selection, but also as a result of constant efforts. However, what influenced me the most was that when Zheng He went to the West in the Ming Dynasty, China had advanced navigation technology at that time, but in the end, it was the spirit of exploration from other countries that discovered South America, Australia, etc., which shows the importance of the spirit of exploration.

Speaking of Australia, in the primitive period, Homo sapiens arrived in Australia, at that time there were many large wild animals, but why liquid defeat accompanied Homo sapiens to defeat them, some people think that it is natural selection, the impact of climate change, some people think that climate change is not enough to make these large animals extinct, Homo sapiens learned to use fire, helped them hunt, and at the same time, the large wild animals in Australia think that Homo sapiens is a small animal that can not pose a threat to them, and it may also be the impact of the climate, which has led to the extinction of large wild animals in Australia.

Whether it is social depression, economy or culture, in the process of similar document changes, human beings have formed a set of their own model, agriculture.

The emergence of the industrial era, relatively speaking, did not make their lives better, they needed to plant wheat, rice and corn, need to bend down to plant seedlings, water, and remove insects, so they evolved diseases such as cervical spondylosis. In the past, bartering could not meet the needs of people's lives, and money and silver foolishness appeared. All these things have their most essential reasons, because they are needed, and therefore they appear.

At the end of the article, we talked about happiness, a person's definition of happiness is inevitably different, this is that there is always a kind of person in the world who is smart without learning, and happy without money, but that person is by no means you. Since we have evolved over thousands of years to become what we are today, we should look at things from a big perspective in life.

I recently read a book that gave me a lot of inspiration and gave me a deeper understanding of myself and the world. The book is called A Brief History of Mankind and is written by the Israeli historian Yuval Harari. This book mainly starts from the perspective of human history, tells the long process of human evolution from apes to the present, and tells about the development of human civilization, the progress of science and technology, and various problems and challenges of human society.

In the process of reading this book, I found that the author's thinking is very original, and he reinterprets various events and phenomena in human history in a very in-depth way. He not only focuses on political, economic and cultural events in history, but also deeply analyzes the nature of human beings and the nature of human society from the perspectives of biology, anthropology, psychology and other disciplines. This book made me rediscover the nature of human beings and the nature of human society.

I have found that the development of human society is inseparable from the progress of science and technology, but the progress of science and technology will also bring a series of problems and challenges. For example, the issues we are now facing, such as climate change, artificial intelligence, and genetics, are all challenges faced in the development of human society. This book made me realize that the future of human society needs to be built together.

It is only through cooperation, innovation and consensus that we will be able to address the problems and challenges facing human society and build a more prosperous, harmonious and sustainable world. In short, this book made me have a deeper understanding of Xiaosui and the world, and made me understand that the development of human society is a complex and hopeful process. I believe that this book can also bring you a lot of inspiration, break through your cognition, and give you a deeper understanding and awareness of yourself and the world.
