21 Lesson for the 21st Century (dust jacket)

“21 Lessons for the 21st Century” — the third book by Yuval Harari, the author of bestsellers published in 50 languages, “Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind” and “Homo Deus: A Brief History of the Future.” In this book, the forty-three-year-old history professor, considered the most outstanding thinker of our time, addresses the issues of today.

What is happening in the modern world and what is the deeper meaning of these events? Why is liberal democracy experiencing a crisis? How to deal with the epidemic of fake news? How not to become slaves to computer algorithms? Will it be possible to prevent ecological collapse? Is there really a return to religion? How to fight terrorism? Will there be a new world war?

Whether humanity can find adequate answers to the challenges it faces in the 21st century will determine whether planet Earth and its inhabitants will exist in the next century.
