Sapiens is the most well written, concise, and thought provoking book on the history of mankind I've ever read. Yuval managed to build upon the most fundamental concepts in life and history chapter after chapter in a way that kept the narrative consistent and easy to follow throughout. I can't recommend this book highly enough to friends and family.

It's basically a collection of short posts, the sort you might find on a blog or popular newsletter. Some of the stories were interesting, but for the most part this wasn't a very fulfilling read.
