Many people know Professor Yuval Noah Harari, author of international bestseller Sapiens: A Brief History of Human Kind, as well as Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow, and 21 Lessons for the 21st Century. Born in Haifa, Israel, Harari received his PhD from the University of Oxford in 2002 and is currently a lecturer at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
A winner of many literary and creative awards, and writer in several publications including The Guardian, Financial Times and Wall Street Journal, Harari specialised in history. His current research focuses on the intersections between biology, evolution and history and he has given many talks around the world regarding the same. His most recent book takes on the most pressing issues of our time, including global climate change, technological development and cyberwar.
