It changes the way you look at the world" (Simon Mayo) "Sapiens is a starburst of a book, as enjoyable as it is stimulating" (Sunday Express) "One of the best books I’ve read recently… Gives an excellent overview of how our species has developed" (Lily Cole) "Sweeps the cobwebs out of your brain… Radiates power and clarity, making the world strange and new" (Sunday Times) |
