While author Yuval Noah Harari focused on the past and the future in his previous best selling books, his latest release, 21 Lessons for the 21st Century, addresses the urgent issues the world currently faced with, and the radical changes that await us in the immediate future.
Harari focuses the first half of his book covering large swaths of political and technological advances and issues that have arisen out of the past and emphasizes our dire need to change their status quo in order to adapt to what awaits us just around the corner. Harari focuses particularly on the looming impacts of infotech and biotech, noting that neither today's widely adopted liberal worldview nor the greater democratic system, are structured in such a way to be able to manage and maintain any control over imminent technological advances.
In the second half of the book, Harari gradually goes from a global scale to a communal, and finally a personal scale of seeing -and grappling with- the modern world. He talks about the fact that human emotions have become the real leader of today (offering strong warnings against further progression of this), and provides myriad suggestions on dispelling the common fears of our present day, such as terrorism, immigration, nationalism, and more. Finally, he ends with a chapter devoted to explaining how he was able to personally find freedom in a world filled with so many constantly changing complexities.
21 Lessons for the 21st Century attempts to cover the nearly two dozen topics that already have, currently do, or will affect all people on our planet. It warns readers just how much looming changes - technological, political, and ecological - will alter what we have always known to be true.
