Yuval Noah Harari's 21 Lessons for the 21st Century is a probing and visionary investigation into today's most urgent issues as we move into the uncharted territory of the future. As technology advances faster than our understanding of it, hacking becomes a tactic of war, and the world feels more polarized than ever, Harari addresses the challenge of navigating life in the face of constant and disorienting change and raises the important questions we need to ask ourselves in order to survive.

As good as Sapiens.
Revisado: 12-25-18
The beginning and AI talk are a bit repetitive of Harari's previous books but this book gains momentum as it progresses, raising many questions for a discussion.

This short, opinionated audiobook addresses the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis, which argues that the language we speak shapes the way we perceive the world. Linguist John McWhorter argues that while this idea is mesmerizing, it is plainly wrong. It is language that reflects culture and worldview, not the other way around.

A short book but it could be even shorter.
Revisado: 12-06-18
The message of the book is quite simple, so the book could be shorter. I would have add more info in the book besides debunking of worfian hypothes. Narration and writing style are top notch.

The extraordinary Siddhartha Mukherjee has written a biography of the gene as deft, brilliant, and illuminating as his extraordinarily successful biography of cancer. Weaving science, social history, and personal narrative to tell us the story of one of the most important conceptual breakthroughs of modern times, Mukherjee animates the quest to understand human heredity and its surprising influence on our lives, personalities, identities, fates, and choices.

History book on genetics
Revisado: 12-01-18
It is a history book on concept of heredity, genetics and genomic. I found second half of the book much more interesting.

Scary but effective
Revisado: 11-20-18
It is a good listen. Ray Dalio is a very interesting man who learned a lot by trial and error. The management/work principles are scary and my first thougth was 'I don't want to work for this crazy dictator-boss'. After listening more, Ray grew on me, his principles seem to be effective at management. The biggest downside of this book for me is Ray's self promotion and promotion of his products. I just wanted to read a good book, not a good book with an ad here and there..
