Thought-provoking!

Thought-provoking!

I have a smart ass friend who keeps talking about this book, is it actually that great?

But not too thought provoking I'm assuming as this was the only thing you felt fit to share with the rest of us.

There are more than sapiens? in technicality

Define a good secondary education

One of the many things I've experienced in my life, that you didn't.

You're not a very happy person, are you?

No, I'd say I'm fairly content. Why do you ask, Mr. Harari?

I wouldn't consider the things without the book. But it's not revolutionary.

This will go down in history as one of the greatest books ever written.

Stunning.

>reading a history of mankind written by a gay jew literally living in isreal

I remember someone saying that it's Jared Diamond-tier historical fiction. Is it?

How can people read shit like this, when there the likes of Spengler, Toynbee and Brondel.

If Jew lives in Israel, he's one of the good ones.

It's okay and brings up some interesting ideas, but what can we expect from the neverending contrarian machine.

What didn't you like about guns germs steel?

It's good. Veeky Forums is just being contrarian because it has memed itself to impossibly high standards. Read it, you'll enjoy it, it probably will raise some questions and you can move onto better books from there if you want to explore them.

Roughly 1/2 way through. Haven't noticed any muh eternal victim bullshit. I'm not up on history so don't know if I'm getting all sides of the story here or not.

Great book if you had poor education. Otherwise you know this stuff already.

geographical reductionism, cherry-picks sources, panned by most historians
