Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow by Yuval Noah Harari

 Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow is a book by Yuval Noah Harari, a historian and professor at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. The book was first published in Hebrew in 2015 and in English in 2016.

In the book, Harari argues that humans are on the verge of a new era, in which they will become gods. He argues that humans have already achieved god-like powers in the fields of agriculture, medicine, and technology. He also argues that humans are now developing new technologies that will allow them to control their own biology and even their own minds.

Harari argues that this new era will be a time of great opportunity and great danger. He argues that humans have the potential to create a utopia, but he also argues that they have the potential to create a dystopia. He argues that the choices that humans make in the coming years will determine the future of humanity.

Homo Deus has been praised by critics for its ambitious scope and its thought-provoking ideas. However, the book has also been criticized for its lack of evidence and its speculative nature.

Overall, Homo Deus is a thought-provoking book that raises important questions about the future of humanity. I disagree with much of his conclusions, but The book is a must-read for anyone who is interested in the future of technology and the future of humanity.
