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.

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.

„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.

Bridges the gap between AI and neuroscience by telling the story of how the brain came to be.''I found this book amazing'' Daniel Kahneman, Winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics and bestselling author of Thinking Fast & SlowThe entirety of the human brain’s 4-billion-year story can be summarised as the culmination of five evolutionary breakthroughs, starting from the very first brains, all the way to the modern human brains. Each breakthrough emerged from new sets of brain modifications, and equipped animals with a new suite of intellectual faculties.These five breakthroughs are the organising map to this book, and they make up our itinerary for our adventure back in time. Each breakthrough also has fascinating corollaries to breakthroughs in AI. Indeed, there will be plenty of such surprises along the way. For instance: the innovation that enabled AI to beat humans in the game of Go – temporal difference reinforcement learning – was an innovation discovered by our fish ancestors over 500 million years ago. The solutions to many of the current mysteries in AI – such as ‘common sense’ – can be found in the tiny brain of a mouse. Where do emotions come from? Research suggests that they may have arisen simply as a solution to navigation in ancient worm brains. Unravelling this evolutionary story will reveal the hidden features of human intelligence and with them, just how your mind came to be.

Príbeh o tom, ako informačné siete budujú aj rúcajú náš svet.Za posledných 100 000 rokov sme my, druh Sapiens, nahromadili obrovskú moc. Ale napriek všetkým našim objavom, vynálezom a víťazstvám stojíme teraz na prahu existenčnej krízy. Svet je na pokraji ekologického kolapsu. Medzinárodné a politické napätie stúpa. A my sa bezhlavo rútime do éry AI – cudzej informačnej siete, ktorá nás môže zničiť. Popri tom všetkom, čo sme dosiahli, prečo sme takí sebadeštruktívni?Nexus sa pozerá na dlhú históriu ľudstva a uvažuje, ako sme sa tu v tom toku informácií ocitli. Yuval Noah Harari nás sprevádza od doby kamennej cez kánonizáciu Biblie, vynález tlače, vzostup masmédií a nedávne oživenie populizmu. Žiada nás, aby sme sa zamysleli nad zložitým vzťahom medzi informáciami a pravdou, byrokraciou a mytológiou, múdrosťou a mocou.Zamýšľa sa, ako pomocou informácií dosahovali svoje ciele systémy ako Rímska ríša, katolícka cirkev či Sovietsky zväz, či už v dobrom alebo zlom. Zaoberá sa naliehavými rozhodnutiami, pred ktorými stojíme, keď našu existenciu ohrozuje iná ako ľudská inteligencia.Informácie nie sú základnou surovinou pravdy, a nie sú ani obyčajnou zbraňou. Nexus skúma nádejnú zlatú strednú cestu medzi týmito extrémami a popri tom znovu objavuje našu ľudskosť.Príbehy nás spojili.Knihy šírili naše myšlienky – aj mytológie.Internet nám sľúbil nekonečné poznanie. Algoritmus spoznal naše tajomstvá – a potom nás poštval proti sebe.Čo s nami urobí umelá inteligencia?Nexus je napínavý príbeh o tom, ako sme dospeli k tomuto okamihu a o naliehavých rozhodnutiach, ktoré musíme urobiť teraz, aby sme prežili – a prosperovali.

Harari poutavě a přesvědčivě popisuje, jak knihy šířily nejen velké myšlenky, ale i nebezpečné mýty. Jak algoritmy zpočátku usnadnily život, a nakonec rozdělily společnost. A ptá se: Co přinese AI?Autor sleduje vývoj informačních sítí od doby kamenné, přes kanonizaci Bible, inkvizici, stalinismus, nacismus, až po dnešní populismus a vzestup umělé inteligence. Ukazuje, jak moc prostřednictvím informací ovlivňovala společnost a jak ji politické systémy využívaly k upevnění své vlády.Dnešní informační revoluce je však radikálně odlišná a nebezpečnější než všechny předchozí. Harari se zamýšlí nad tím, jaká existenciální rizika představuje umělá inteligence, která se rozhoduje bez odpovědnosti a může utvářet svět bez lidské kontroly.V knize se mimo jiné dozvíte: Svobodný tok informací automaticky nevede k pravdě. Skon vytvářet mocné entity sahá až k vynálezu náboženství, ne AI. Algoritmy činí rozhodnutí, ale nenesou za ně následky. Nové digitální říše se mohou chovat stejně vykořisťovatelsky jako koloniální impéria. Demokracie mají díky sebeopravným mechanismům větší odolnost vůči hrozbám AI než diktatury. „Důležitá kniha, přicházející ve významném okamžiku lidských dějin.“ — SCIENCE

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.

I met Reda on Christmas Eve 2012, at around four in the morning. He approached me in the street, and finally I invited him up to my apartment. He told me the story of his childhood and how his father had come to France, having fled Algeria. We spent the rest of the night together, talking, laughing. At around 6 o'clock, he pulled out a gun and said he was going to kill me. He insulted me, strangled and raped me. The next day, the medical and legal proceedings began. History of Violence retraces the story of that night, and looks at immigration, class, racism, desire and the effects of trauma in an attempt to understand a history of violence, its origins, its reasons and its causes.

This study of the history of reading goes from the earliest examples of the clay tablets and cuneiform of ancient Mesopotamia and Egypt via the invention of printing in the 15th century to the birth of a mass reading public and today's digital revolution. It argues that it is the demands and expectations of the reader, acting alongside the creative will of the writer, that is the evolutionary motor of literary forms and genres. From man's first use of the written word simply as a form of reference, to the emergence of the first holy or devotional texts, and onto the development of fictions, both poetic and novelistic, this work aims to both challenge and enlighten.

A rich and engaging guide to psychology, the science devoted to understanding human nature What really drives our decisions? Where do language and memory come from? Why do our minds sometimes seem to work against us? Psychologists have long attempted to answer these questions, seeking to understand human behaviour, feelings, and thoughts. But how to explore something so elusive? In this fascinating history, leading expert Nicky Hayes tells the story of psychology across the centuries and around the world. Hayes introduces key thinkers, including Carl Jung, Anna Freud, Frantz Fanon, and Daniel Kahneman.We see how they tried to expand our understanding, from Pavlov and his dogs to Milgram and his famous electric shock experiments to the CIA’s secret mind-control projects. Hayes explores key concepts like child development, the inferiority complex, and PTSD and shows how psychological research has been used for both good and ill. This Little History shines a light on the ever-advancing study of psychology, how the field has evolved over time—and how much more we need to learn.

Everyone is originally from Africa, and this book is therefore for everyone.For too long, Africa's history has been dominated by western narratives of slavery and colonialism, or simply ignored. Now, Zeinab Badawi sets the record straight.In this fascinating book, Badawi guides us through Africa's spectacular history - from the very origins of our species, through ancient civilisations and medieval empires with remarkable queens and kings, to the miseries of conquest and the elation of independence. Visiting more than thirty African countries to interview countless historians, anthropologists, archaeologists and local storytellers, she unearths buried histories from across the continent and gives Africa its rightful place in our global story.The result is a gripping new account of Africa: an epic, sweeping history of the oldest inhabited continent on the planet, told through the voices of Africans themselves.

A much-loved author brings the world of literature alive for all ages This 'little history' takes on a very big subject: the glorious span of literature from Greek myth to graphic novels, from The Epic of Gilgamesh to Harry Potter. John Sutherland is perfectly suited to the task. He has researched, taught, and written on virtually every area of literature, and his infectious passion for books and reading has defined his own life. Now he guides young readers and the grown-ups in their lives on an entertaining journey 'through the wardrobe' to a greater awareness of how literature from across the world can transport us and help us to make sense of what it means to be human. Sutherland introduces great classics in his own irresistible way, enlivening his offerings with humor as well as learning: Beowulf, Shakespeare, Don Quixote, the Romantics, Dickens, Moby Dick, The Waste Land, Woolf, 1984, and dozens of others. He adds to these a less-expected, personal selection of authors and works, including literature usually considered well below 'serious attention' - from the rude jests of Anglo-Saxon runes to The Da Vinci Code. With masterful digressions into various themes - censorship, narrative tricks, self-publishing, taste, creativity, and madness - Sutherland demonstrates the full depth and intrigue of reading. For younger readers, he offers a proper introduction to literature, promising to interest as much as instruct. For more experienced readers, he promises just the same. John Sutherland, Lord Northcliffe Professor Emeritus of Modern English Literature, University College London, has taught students at every level and is the author or editor of more than 20 books. He lives in London.

A vital, engaging, and hugely enjoyable guide to poetry, from ancient times to the present, by one of our greatest champions of literatureWhat is poetry? If music is sound organised in a particular way, poetry is a way of organising language. It is language made special so that it will be remembered and valued. It does not always work - over the centuries countless thousands of poems have been forgotten. This little history is about some that have not.John Carey tells the stories behind the world's greatest poems, from the oldest surviving one written nearly four thousand years ago to those being written today. Carey looks at poets whose works shape our views of the world, such as Dante, Chaucer, Shakespeare, Whitman, and Yeats. He also looks at more recent poets, like Derek Walcott, Marianne Moore, and Maya Angelou, who have started to question what makes a poem 'great' in the first place. This little history shines a light on the richness and variation of the world's poems-and the elusive quality that makes them all the more enticing.
