Homo Deus

In the follow-up to SAPIENS, Harari looks ahead, examining the next stage of human evolution. In his well-researched and thorough manner, Harari details experiments, studies, and other data to explain what factors will influence humans now that the major threats from history--famine, disease, and war--are essentially disarmed. Derek Perkins narrates the audiobook with an authentic excitement that engages listeners even when the content sounds a bit like a textbook, weighted down with jargon and scientific detail as it is. Nonetheless, Perkins projects Harari's passion for his subject matter, and in doing so, keeps listeners engaged with the author's fascinating and enlightening findings. Science enthusiasts will undoubtedly devour this audiobook, while others may wish Perkins had taught their high school science class. J.F. � AudioFile 2017, Portland, Maine
