Name: Homo Deus
Rating: 5 (2 reviews)

Yuval Noah Harari’s Homo Deus examines the trajectory of the present world, where emerging technologies—digital algorithms, genetic manipulation, and data‑driven social platforms—interact with traditional human myths such as gods, money, equality and freedom. The book asks how these forces will transform democratic societies, challenge welfare systems, and potentially replace humans in the labor market with increasingly capable machines. Through a forward‑looking lens, Harari offers a sober preview of the trials and possibilities that will shape the 21st‑century landscape, urging readers to contemplate the new destiny of humanity as it transitions from Homo sapiens to Homo Deus.
