Description
Yuval Noah Harari’s argument is that the story of human power is really a story about information networks — how they’re built, who controls them, and what happens when the systems meant to sort truth from fiction break down. He moves from the oral traditions of the Stone Age through the canonization of the Bible, early modern witch hunts, and the propaganda machines of Stalinism and Nazism, up to the algorithms shaping politics today. Nexus follows Sapiens and Homo Deus in the same register, asking what today’s information networks — AI included — are actually doing to the relationship between wisdom and power.
