The story of how information networks have made, and unmade, our world from the #1 Sunday Times bestselling author of Sapiens.For the last 100,000 years, humans have accumulated enormous power. But despite all our discoveries, inventions and conquests, we now find ourselves in an existential crisis. The world is on the verge of ecological collapse.Misinformation abounds. And we are rushing headlong into the age of AI - a new information network that threatens to annihilate us. If we are so wise, why are we so self-destructive?NEXUS considers how the flow of information has shaped us, and our world.Taking us from the Stone Age through the Bible, early modern witch-hunts, Stalinism, Nazism and the resurgence of populism today, Yuval Noah Harari asks us to consider the complex relationship between information and truth, bureaucracy and mythology, wisdom and power. He explores how different societies and political systems have wielded information to achieve their goals, for good and ill. And he addresses the urgent choices we face as non-human intelligence threatens our very existence.Information is not the raw material of truth; neither is it a mere weapon.NEXUS explores the hopeful middle ground between these extremes, and of rediscovering our shared humanity.

„Pred 100 000 rokmi obývalo Zem najmenej šesť ľudských druhov. Dnes je tu už len jeden. My. Homo sapiens.“ V knihe Sapiens: Stručná história ľudstva jej autor, nazývaný aj vizionársky historik, Dr. Yuval Noah Harari opisuje históriu človeka ako biologického druhu od prvých ľudí až po súčasnosť, ktorú výrazne ovplyvnili tri revolúcie - kognitívna, poľnohospodárska a vedecká revolúcia. Ako zvíťazil náš druh v boji o dominanciu? Prečo sa naši kočovní predkovia usadili a začali zakladať mestá a ríše? Ako sme dospeli k viere v bohov, národy a ľudské práva? A aký bude náš svet v ďalších tisícročiach? Vychádzajúc z poznatkov z histórie, biológie, antropológie, paleontológie a ekonómie Dr. Harari skúma, ako jednotlivé historické prúdy formovali ľudské spoločnosti - ich nažívanie v rámci spoločnosti, ale aj s prírodou, zvieratami a rastlinami - a dokonca aj ľudskú osobnosť. Sme vďaka tomu šťastnejší? Môžeme niekedy vôbec oslobodiť naše správanie od dedičstva našich predkov? A čo môžeme alebo by sme mali urobiť, aby sme ovplyvnili priebeh nasledujúcich storočí? Autor tak čitateľa núti zamyslieť sa aj nad blízkou či vzdialenejšou budúcnosťou, ktorú ovplyvňuje správanie človeka, vedecký pokrok a jeho snaha pozmeniť zákony prírody len pre svoje blaho. Kniha je vzrušujúcim zhrnutím našej neuveriteľnej histórie - od bezvýznamných opíc až k pánom sveta. Jej obsah je odvážny, obsiahly aj provokatívny. Spochybňuje všetko, čo sme o ľudstve zdanlivo vedeli: našu vieru, činy, moc... aj našu budúcnosť, a pritom sa zamýšľa a ozrejmuje najdôležitejšie otázky histórie a moderného sveta. Nestáva sa často, aby kniha dala čitateľom možnosť prehodnotiť prakticky všetko konanie človeka ako druhu. A presne to sa podarilo Hararimu v jeho zhrňujúcom, ale zrozumiteľnom pohľade na dejiny ľudstva. Harariho kniha Sapiens: Stručná história ľudstva sa stala medzinárodným bestsellerom a doteraz vyšla v tridsiatich piatich krajinách. Jej obsah je zaujímavý a často aj zábavný, je napísaná živým, prístupným jazykom a vlastný text dopĺňajú fotografie, mapy, schémy a ilustrácie.

Vo svojom kritikmi uznávanom medzinárodnom bestselleri, Sapiens, Yuval Noah Harari vysvetlil, ako sa ľudstvu podarilo ovládnuť planétu. V knihe Homo Deus skúma budúcnosť ľudstva a ponúka víziu zajtrajška, ktorá sa zdá byť nezrozumiteľná, ale časom sa stane neodvratná: ľudstvo stratí nielen svoju dominanciu, ale aj samotný zmysel.Za posledné storočie sa ľudstvu podarilo nemožné: premeniť nekontrolovateľné sily prírody - hladomor, epidémie a vojny - na zvládnuteľné výzvy. Dnes zomiera viac ľudí na prejedanie ako na hladomor, viac ľudí zomiera na starobu ako na infekčné choroby a samovraždu spácha viac ľudí, ako stihnú zabiť vojaci, teroristi a zločinci dohromady. Sme jediným druhom v dlhej histórii Zeme, ktorému sa samotnému podarilo zmeniť celú planétu, a už sme prestali očakávať, že by naše osudy mohla formovať nejaká vyššia sila.Čo nahradí hladomor, epidémie a vojny na prvých miestach ľudského snaženia? Aký osud si pripravíme a aké ciele budeme sledovať? Homo Deus skúma projekty, sny a nočné mory, ktoré budú formovať dvadsiate prvé storočie, od prekonania smrti po vytvorenie umelého života. Lenže pri dosahovaní týchto cieľov môže nakoniec väčšina ľudských bytostí stratiť svoj zmysel. Čo budeme robiť potom? A ako ochránime tento krehký svet pred svojimi vlastnými ničivými silami? Nemôžeme zastaviť chod histórie, ale môžeme ovplyvniť jej smerovanie.Predvídanie budúcnosti obvykle predpokladá, že zajtrajšok bude v podstate veľmi podobný dnešku - že budeme mať úžasné nové technológie, ale stále nás budú usmerňovať staré dobré humanistické hodnoty ako sloboda a rovnosť. Homo Deus tieto predpoklady rúca a naznačuje širokú škálu alternatívnych možností, s provokatívnymi argumentmi na každej strane. Napríklad:" Hlavné produkty ekonomiky dvadsiateho prvého storočia nebudú textílie, autá ani zbrane, ale telá, mozgy a mysle." Priemyselná revolúcia vytvorila pracujúcu triedu, ďalšia veľká revolúcia vytvorí zbytočnú triedu." Spôsob, akým my ľudia zaobchádzame so zvieratami, nastavuje zrkadlo, ako budú vylepšení superľudia zaobchádzať s nami." Demokracia a voľný trh sa zrútia, keď nás Google a Facebook budú poznať lepšie ako my sami, a autorita sa presunie z jednotlivých ľudí na zosieťované algoritmy." Ľudia nebudú proti strojom bojovať - splynú s nimi. Smerujeme skôr k manželstvu ako vojne.Takto vyzerá nový svet a priepasť medzi tými, ktorí naskočia na palubu, a tými, ktorí sa neprispôsobia, bude väčšia ako priepasť medzi priemyselnými impériami a agrárnymi kmeňmi, dokonca väčšia aj ako medzi Homo sapiens a neandertálcami. Toto je ďalšia fáza evolúcie. Toto je Homo deus.

An exhilarating journey through the most creative and catastrophic f*ck ups in human history, from our very first ancestor falling out of that tree, to the most spectacular fails of the present day. In the seventy thousand years that modern human beings have walked this earth, we've come a long way. Art, science, culture, trade - on the evolutionary food chain, we're real winners. But, frankly, it's not exactly been plain sailing, and sometimes - just occasionally - we've managed to really, truly, quite unbelievably f*ck things up. From Chairman Mao's Four Pests Campaign, to the American Dustbowl; from the Austrian army attacking itself one drunken night, to the world's leading superpower electing a reality TV mogul as President... it's pretty safe to say that, as a species, we haven't exactly grown wiser with age. So, next time you think you've really f*cked up, this book will remind you: it could be so much worse...

We humans aren't strong like lions, we don't swim as well as dolphins, and we definitely don't have wings! So how did we end up ruling the world? The answer to that is one of the strangest tales you'll ever hear. And it's a true story . . .Have you ever wondered how we got here? From hunting mammoths, to flying to the moon? It is because we are unstoppable. But what made us so? Well, we have the most amazing superpower: the ability to tell stories.

Nothing stands in our way, and we always want more. So get ready for the most amazing story there ever was - the incredible true tale of the Unstoppables. Find out how fire shrank our stomachs, how our ancestors spoke to animals, what football can tell us about being human, how we used our superpower for good and bad . . . and how YOU have the superpower to change the world.

Prvý diel nádherne ilustrovaného príbehu histórie ľudstva, podľa skvelej a úspešnej knihy Yuvala Noaha Harariho, ktorá sa stala medzinárodným bestsellerom. Toto je príbeh o tom, ako sa z bezvýznamnej opice stal vládca planéty Zem, ktorý dokázal štiepiť atóm, lietať na Mesiac a manipulovať s genetickým kódom života. S Yuvalom Noahom Hararim ako sprievodcom, a postavami ako je praveký Bill, doktorka Fiktívna a detektívka Lopezová, sa vydáte na výlet po najzaujímavejších zákutiach histórie. Evolúcia ľudstva je prerozprávaná ako televízna reality šou; prvé stretnutie Sapiens a neandertálcov preskúmame prostredníctvom majstrovských diel moderného umenia; a vyhynutie mamutov a šabľozubých tigrov je prerozprávané ako filmová detektívka. Sapiens: Ilustrovaná história je revolučná – a okrem toho prudko zábavná – interpretácia príbehu ľudstva, plná vtipu, humoru, ale aj poučenia. Yuval Noah Harari, historik, filozof a autor bestsellerov, je považovaný za jedného z najvplyvnejších svetových intelektuálov. Doktorát z histórie získal na Oxfordskej univerzite a v súčasnosti prednáša históriu na Hebrejskej univerzite v Jeruzaleme. Kniha Sapiens: Stručná história ľudstva bola preložená do šesťdesiatich jazykov a stala sa medzinárodným bestsellerom – predalo sa z nej šestnásť miliónov výtlačkov. Harari je tiež autorom bestsellerov Homo Deus a 21 lekcií pre 21. storočie.

His grandfather was the bloodthirsty Mongol leader Genghis Khan, his mother a Christian princess. Groomed from childhood for a position of authority, Khubilai snatched the position of Great Khan, becoming the overlord of a Mongol federation that stretched from the Balkans to the Korean coastline. His armies conquered the Asian kingdom of Dali and brought down the last defenders of imperial China. Khubilai Khan presided over a glorious Asian renaissance, attracting emissaries from all across the continent, and opening his civil service to 'men with coloured eyes' - administrators from the far west. His life and times encompassed the legends of Prester John, the pinnacle of the samurai (and, indeed, the Mongols), and the travels of Marco Polo.

There is something beautiful and wild in the impossible architecture of lighthouses. They have been the homes and workplaces of men and women whose romantic guardianship has saved countless lives from cruel seas. Yet while that way of life fades away, as the lights go out and the buildings crumble, we still have their stories.From a blind lighthouse keeper tending a light in the Arctic Circle, to an intrepid young girl saving ships from wreck at the foot of her father's lighthouse, and the plight of the lighthouse crew cut off from society for forty days, this is a glorious book full of illuminating stories that will transport the reader to the world's most isolated and inspiring lighthouses.With over thirty tales that explore the depths to which we can sink and the heights to which we can soar as human beings, and accompanied by beautiful illustrations, nautical charts, maps, architectural plans and curious facts, A Brief Atlas of the Lighthouses at the End of the World is as full of wonder as the far flung lighthouses themselves.Translated from Spanish by Daniel Hahn

For centuries humanity has engaged in a virtual exploration of space through astronomical observation, aided by astounding scientific and technological advances. In more than sixty years since the launch of Sputnik 1 in 1957, more than 6,000 functioning satellites have been launched into Earth’s orbit and beyond – some to the farthest reaches of the Solar System – and more than 540 people have travelled into space. Unprecedented in its chronological and geographical scope, this book charts the history of space exploration from the first gunpowder rockets through the Moon landings, and into a future of space tourism. Numerous sidebars focus on the key individuals and inventions that brought us closer to the farthest reaches of the universe. Filled with astonishing images from the Smithsonian, NASA archives and other international collections, this is the first in-depth, fully illustrated survey of this universal human journey.Table of Contents1.

Was there a beginning of time? Could time run backwards? Is the universe infinite or does it have boundaries? These are just some of the questions considered in an internationally acclaimed masterpiece by one of the world's greatest thinkers.

A radical re-examination of 2,500 years of European art, deconstructing and demystifying its long history from ancient to presentHow has art evolved from the pursuit of the ‘ideal’ human form to a black square on a white canvas? Why is a banana duct-taped to a wall worth more on the art market than a beautiful seventeenth-century landscape?By taking art for what it actually is — a piece of stone or wood, a sheet of paper with some lines drawn on it, a painted canvas — this lively and accessible account shows how seemingly meaningless objects can be transformed into celebrated works of art. Breaking with conventional notions of artistic genius, Koenraad Jonckheere explores how stories and emotions give meaning to objects, and why changing historical circumstances result in such shifting opinions over time. Tracing its story from ancient times to present,A New History of Western Art reframes the evolution of European art and radically reshapes our understanding of art history.Published in association with Hannibal Books
