Sapiens - Yuval Noah Harari At this meeting we will discuss page 209 to end of book 100,000 years ago, at least six species of human inhabited the earth. Today there is just one. Us. Homo Sapiens. How did our species succeed in the battle for dominance? Why did our foraging ancestors come together to create cities and kingdoms? How did we come to believe in gods, nations, and human rights; to trust money, books, and laws; and to be enslaved by bureaucracy, timetables, and consumerism? And what will our world be like in the millennia to come? In Sapiens, Dr. Yuval Noah Harari spans the whole of human history, from the very first humans to walk the earth to the radical -- and sometimes devastating -- breakthroughs of the Cognitive, Agricultural, and Scientific Revolutions. Drawing on insights from biology, anthropology, palaeontology, and economics, he explores how the currents of history have shaped our human societies, the animals and plants around us, and even our personalities. Have we become happier as history has unfolded? Can we ever free our behaviour from the heritage of our ancestors? And what, if anything, can we do to influence the course of the centuries to come? Bold, wide-ranging and provocative, Sapiens challenges everything we thought we knew about being human: our thoughts, our actions, our power...and our future.

Anthony Magnabosco has been practicing and promoting Street Epistemology for more than three years, and has hundreds of encounters on his YouTube channel. Anthony doesn't argue with believers, but asks Socratic questions to uncover the justifications and reliability of the methods that people use to be confident that their Gods exist. Anthony is a skeptic and agnostic atheist who is married with two kids, lives in San Antonio, Texas, and loves helping people examine beliefs of all kinds.
