If you haven't read Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind by Yuval Harari, it is a great read and has lots of insights into the way early Homo sapiens may have behaved. Hint: we won, probably not by accident...
- traject_ 10y agoEnjoyable read but, as a sacrifice for being entertaining, it sometimes falls into the wayside of hasty sensationalist conclusions.
- jawilson2 10y agoI agree. There were several times that it made a statement like "Early homo sapiens likely killed off Neanderthals. AND IF WE DON'T CHANGE, WE WILL WIPE OUT ALL HUMANITY WITHIN A GENERATION." The bias showed a little too strongly in places.
