Yuval Noah Harari, author of the critically acclaimed New York Times best seller and international phenomenon Sapiens, returns with an equally original, compelling, and provocative book, turning his focus toward humanity's future and our quest to upgrade humans into gods.
Over the past century, humankind has managed to do the impossible and rein in famine, plague, and war. This may seem hard to accept, but as Harari explains in his trademark style - thorough yet riveting - famine, plague, and war have been transformed from incomprehensible and uncontrollable forces of nature into manageable challenges. For the first time ever, more people die from eating too much than from eating too little; more people die from old age than from infectious diseases; and more people commit suicide than are killed by soldiers, terrorists, and criminals put together. The average American is 1,000 times more likely to die from binging at McDonalds than from being blown up by Al Qaeda.
What then will replace famine, plague, and war at the top of the human agenda? As the self-made gods of planet Earth, what destinies will we set ourselves, and which quests will we undertake? Homo Deus explores the projects, dreams, and nightmares that will shape the 21st century - from overcoming death to creating artificial life. It asks the fundamental questions: Where do we go from here? And how will we protect this fragile world from our own destructive powers? This is the next stage of evolution. This is Homo Deus.
With the same insight and clarity that made Sapiens an international hit and a New York Times best seller, Harari maps out our future.

Really this is completely understandable when considering that Sapiens has all of us a the central figure of the story. Homo Deus is NOT this; it has at its center no hero, no answers and even more disturbingly, the latest set of deep and meaningful questions to confront humanity. These new questions aren't the age old ones of individual consciousness: Who am I? What's the meaning of life? How long do I have?
They are questions on the level of the species which undermine the dominant ideology of our time if not stealing our dreams for the future.
As the reader you might easily shrug this off and enjoy the concepts presented however for the same reasons we found Harari so compelling in "Sapiens," is the same REASON we can't shake his completely lucid characterization of the predicament humanity finds itself in presently.
Where Sapiens showed our progress and left us hopefully contemplating our happiness unfortunately Homo Deus leaves us with three questions that are more intractable and a sense that even if we answer them, they'll bring no solace...in our brief future.

A book that actually explains how the works

I gave this book 3 stars because:
1. It is a good intro to these topics for those who have not been following them, but may be a bit shallow for those who have. The purpose of this book is not to go into detail regarding the science or tech of these issues, so that should not be expected.
2. The author seems to take definitive moral positions without fully explaining opposing views.
3. He uses the word "religion" to mean almost any human philosophy or ideology. So for him "religion" includes the obvious ones like Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, etc. but also Capitalism, communism, secular humanism, democracy, etc. I think this extremely expansive definition is almost useless.
A little over simplified
