Voici une histoire de France, de toute la France, en très longue durée qui mène de la grotte Chauvet aux événements de 2015, sans s'embarrasser de la question des origines. Une histoire qui prend au large le destin d'un pays qui n'existe pas séparément du monde, même si parfois il prétend l'incarner tout entier. Une histoire qui n'abandonne pas pour autant la chronologie ni le plaisir du récit, puisque c'est par dates qu'elle s'organise et que chaque date est traitée comme une petite intrigue.

Pourquoi la démocratie libérale est-elle en crise ? Sommes-nous à l'aube d'une nouvelle guerre mondiale ? Que faire devant l'épidémie de "fake news" ? Quelle civilisation domine le monde : l'Occident, la Chine ou l'Islam ? Que devons-nous enseigner à nos enfants ? Avec l'intelligence, la perspicacité et la clarté qui ont fait le succès mondial de ses deux précédents livres, Yuval Noah Harari décrypte le XXIe siècle sous tous ses aspects.

Critic reviews
La press en parle :
"Dans son livre "Il était une fois nos ancêtres", Richard Dawkins, le zoologiste de l'université d'Oxford, nous propose de visiter d'épaisses forêts de l'arbre généalogique de l'homme. L'auteur des ouvrages scientifiques devenus classiques "Le gène égoïste" et "L'Horloger aveugle", Dawkins est un guide excellent, à la fois un penseur scientifique profondément original et un un professeur merveilleusement adepte, qui sait rendre le discours scientifiques clair et accessible."

Richard Dawkins' brilliant reformulation of the theory of natural selection has the rare distinction of having provoked as much excitement and interest outside the scientific community as within it. His theories have helped change the whole nature of the study of social biology, and have forced thousands to rethink their beliefs about life.

In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

In The Quantum Universe, Brian Cox and Jeff Forshaw approach the world of quantum mechanics in the same way they did in Why Does E=mc2? and make fundamental scientific principles accessible - and fascinating - to everyone.The subatomic realm has a reputation for weirdness, spawning any number of profound misunderstandings, journeys into Eastern mysticism, and woolly pronouncements on the interconnectedness of all things. Cox and Forshaw's contention? There is no need for quantum mechanics to be viewed this way.
