Nexus: A Brief History of Information Networks from the Stone Age to AI

The flow of information has a powerful influence on our daily lives — and world-changing events. In Nexus, renowned historian Yuval Noah Harari (who also authored Sapiens, A Brief History of Humankind) explores how societies throughout history have managed, used and suppressed information to reach their goals, for better or worse. Taking readers through the witch hunts, Naziism, Stalinism and many other eras when the flow of information could mean life or death, Hariri raises powerful questions relevant to any Social Capital leader about how we will manage information in the future and how it can be used to create a better world where people come first. As he sees it, we’re on a precipice, where getting the answers right could determine the future of civilization. Don’t miss this bestseller.
