What follows here are my (admittedly brief) thoughts on what I consider Harari’s Magnum Opus at this stage. A superlative work of non-fiction which installs itself instantly into my favourite non-fiction works in this space, alongside the likes of A Short History of Nearly Everything, Guns Germs &amp; Steel and The Better Angels of Our Nature — all equally ambitious and enlightening tomes in their own right.
