这部来自知名历史学家的开创性巨著——荣登国际畅销榜榜首——探讨了生物学与历史如何定义我们，并深化了我们对何为“人类”的理解。十万年前，地球上至少生活着六种不同的人属物种。然而今天只剩下一种——homo sapiens。其他人种遭遇了什么？我们又将走向何方？大多数关于人类历史的书籍要么从历史角度切入，要么从生物学角度切入，但 Yuval Noah Harari 博士打破常规，以这部极富……

……故事情节。至少，你会学会心怀希望，这是读这本小说最大的收获。如果你还在犹豫要不要读，直接冲就是了。我觉得其他有意思的书还有：- 《微习惯》（The Slight Edge）- 《人类简史》（Sapiens）- 《大师与玛格丽特》（除了是部伟大的小说外，这本书简直幽默得不行）
…storyline. At the minimum, you will learn to hope which is a big takeaway from this novel. If you are on the fence reading this, just go for it. Other books which I find interesting - The Slight Edge - Sapiens - The Master and Margarita (apart from the fact it is a great novel, this is so wickedly funny )
其实从历史上看，我们以前都是采集和狩猎的。读完《人类简史》（Sapiens）后，我确信正是农业把人类推向了这种苦难的深渊。大规模战争、饥荒，以及农业革命后几乎所有的弊病，都是食物有了……的直接恶果。
Actually historically, we foraged and hunted. After reading Sapiens I’m convinced that farming actually set humans on the path towards this very suffering. Large scale war, famine and pretty much every post agrarian revolution ill, is a direct consequence of having food…
我今年读了尤瓦尔·赫拉利的《人类简史》（Sapiens）。书挺长，但引人入胜，考据做得极好，而且通俗易懂，足够当作我写论文间隙的“消遣读物”。有几点让我印象深刻……
I read Sapiens by Yuval Harari this year. It was long and fascinating, incredibly well researched, and easy enough for "light reading" that I had time for between writing research papers. A couple things that stuck…
1. 《人类简史》（Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind），主要是讲我们社会大多建立在群体虚构之上的那部分。2. 赫尔曼·黑塞的《悉达多》（Siddhartha），我记得读的时候深受感动，但我现在不太能……
1. Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind Mostly the bits about how our society is mostly built on collective fictions. 2. Siddhartha, by Herman Hesse I remember being very moved reading this, but I can't quite…
尤瓦尔·诺亚·赫拉利的《人类简史》（Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind）。绝对是对我影响最大的书，没有之一。这本书（对我来说）不仅包含一个，而是好几个既简单又深刻的观点，它们永远地烙印进了……
"Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind" by Yuval Noah Harari. Hands down the book that most influenced me. The book had (for me) not one but several simple-yet-profound ideas that were forever inserted into the…
……这些人，我觉得我早餐麦片牛奶里泡着的浮游生物都比他们有脑子。《复利效应》（The Compound Effect）——这书单里的其中一本，我读了一半，纯纯的垃圾。不过这书单里的《人类简史》（Sapiens）我也读过，我确实会把它评价为能开阔眼界的神作。单看这两本书，我就觉得这书单的质量实在太参差不齐了。我觉得书评这玩意儿基本没啥卵用……
…people, I think I’ve seen more intelligent forms of life swimming in the milk in my breakfast cereal. I read half of The Compound Effect — one of the books in this list. It was trash. I’ve also read Sapiens from this list, and I certainly would characterise it as mind expanding. Even from these two titles alone, I’d say the quality in the selection is far too variable. I think reviews are near enough useless…
