The author of Sapiens and Homo Deus in conversation with Andrew Marr

Best-selling author Yuval Noah Harari discuss the history of the world, the challenges of the present and a post-human future with Andrew Marr

Yuval Noah Harari offers his 21 lessons for the 21st century. In a wide ranging discussion with Andrew Marr, Harari looks back to his best-selling history of the world, Sapiens, and forward to a possible post-human future.
