For 100.000 år siden var Jorden beboet af mindst seks menneskearter. I dag er der kun en tilbage: Os. Homo sapiens. Hvorfor endte lige praecis vores art med at herske over kloden? Hvordan kunne vores jaeger- og samlerforfaedre enes om at bygge byer og skabe kongeriger? Hvorfor begyndte vi at tro på guder, nationer og menneskerettigheder? At have tillid til penge, bøger og love? Og vaere slaver af bureaukrati, tidsplaner og forbrugerisme? Og hvordan vil vores verden udvikle sig i det naeste årtusinde?

Who are we? How do scientists define Homo sapiens, and how does our species differ from the extinct hominins that came before us? In this accessible account palaeoarchaeologist Paul Pettitt shows how the latest scientific advances, especially in genetics, are revolutionizing our understanding of human evolution. Pettitt reveals the extraordinary story of how our ancestors adapted to unforgiving and relentlessly changing climates, leading to remarkable innovations in art, technology, and society that we are only now beginning to comprehend.

In the beginning, Homo sapiens was just one of the human species in the world. After centuries of coexistence, it was the only survivor. How did that happen? This captivating audiobook on Homo sapiens uncovers the secrets of our species and what made us human. From their humble beginnings in the dawn of prehistory, Homo sapiens rose to become one of the most resilient species in the world.

Homo Sapiens tells the story of the species from its earliest evolutions through the development of the first civilizations up to the industrial and information revolutions that have shaped the modern age. William Potter's thrilling new account asks us to reconsider our traditional notions of history by examining the power of the environment, the influence of language, the ideas that have transformed society, the power of transformative technology, and much, much more.

La procrastinación tiene un origen, y no es otro que la perfección del ser humano en sus mecanismos de eficiencia energética. Hacer algo siempre consume más energía que no hacerlo; comerse ese trozo de pastel aunque no se tenga hambre no es más que la respuesta natural de mecanismos que se han ido perfeccionando a lo largo de millones de años de evolución. Pedro Vivar nos ofrece las claves para entender el funcionamiento de la procrastinación y desarrollar al máximo nuestras capacidades físicas y mentales.

Сто тысяч лет назад Homo sapiens был одним из как минимум шести видов человека, живших на этой планете, — ничем не примечательным животным, которое играло в экосистеме роль не большую, чем гориллы, светлячки или медузы. Но около семидесяти тысяч лет назад загадочное изменение когнитивных способностей Homo sapiens превратило его в хозяина планеты и кошмар экосистемы. Как человек разумный сумел покорить мир? Что стало с другими видами человека? Когда и почему появились деньги, государства и религия? Как возникали и рушились империи?

This audiobook follows our ascendancy from just another hominin to the alpha hegemon on Earth today endangering its entire future. Along the way, humans outwitted their competition with phenomenal efficiency to emerge in the 21st century as the linchpin of a mass extinction of countless lifeforms cohabiting their planet. The shredding of our ecosphere by overconsumption of Earth’s resources by this species, and the combustion of deadly fossil fuels to acquire the energy needed to sustain their lifestyle, is threatening to drive Homo sapiens to extinction within the next 300 years.
