Nexus

The story of how information networks have made, and unmade, our world from the #1 Sunday Times bestselling author of Sapiens

Stories brought us together.

Books spread our ideas - and our mythologies.

The internet promised infinite knowledge.

The algorithm learned our secrets - and then turned us against each other.

What will AI do?

NEXUS is the thrilling account of how we arrived at this moment, and the urgent choices we must now make to survive - and to thrive.

Instant Sunday Times bestseller, September 2024

Review: [Harari] sticks the world together in a gleaming shape that inspires and excites * TELEGRAPH *
A superb narrative writer * GUARDIAN *
Engrossing . . . A diagnosis and a call to action . . . If [Nexus] sells anywhere near as well as Sapiens did, we'll be that bit better equipped as a species to deal with the rise of the machines * OBSERVER *
Harari's narrative is engaging, and his framing is strikingly original * ECONOMIST *
Tremendous, thought-provoking and so very well reasoned. Harari gives us a vision of a rapidly approaching future that is at one and the same time thrilling and chilling. If there is one book that I would urge everyone to read - our political, corporate and cultural leaders most especially - it is Nexus -- STEPHEN FRY
