Synopses

Sapiens A Graphic History, Volume 1 : The Birth of Humankind

Set against a time when multiple human species shared the Earth, this opening volume asks why only Homo sapiens remains and what that might mean for our future. Harari explores how biology and history have shaped humankind, linking our evolution to the ways we understand what it means to be human.

Covering the first part of the original edition in easy-to-understand text, the adaptation examines humanity’s place in the global ecosystem and considers the rise of empires, encouraging readers to connect past developments with contemporary concerns.

Sapiens A Graphic History, Volume 2 : The Pillars of Civilization

This volume turns to the shift from nomadic life to settlement, asking why harder work did not necessarily deliver a better life. Harari and his companions, including Prof. Saraswati and Dr. Fiction, travel through human history to investigate how the Agricultural Revolution reshaped society.

Along the way, it considers how wheat spread across the world and how war, famine, disease and inequality became part of the human condition.

Sapiens A Graphic History, Volume 3 : The Masters of History

Challenging the idea that history is driven solely by rulers and leaders, this instalment looks for the forces that change the world, unite societies and also pull them apart. It explores the rise of money, religion and empire through a humorous journey across the past.

With Heroda Tush as host, the book poses questions about what makes civilisations rise and fall, weighing luck and circumstance, the influence of conquerors and the impact of ongoing confrontation.
