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
Harari has a unique ability to unite both history’s finest details and its grandest megatrends in a single view. This deeply important book comes at a critical time as we all think through the implications of AI
MUSTAFA SULEYMAN
Harari is one of the most remarkable intellects of our generation – bold, original, erudite, provocative and entrancing. His latest book reimagines everything from literacy to AI and – like all his books – fundamentally shifts one’s view of the world
RORY STEWART
[Harari] sticks the world together in a gleaming shape that inspires and excites
TELEGRAPH
[An] always rewarding, often alarming book
LITERARY REVIEW
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
A superb narrative writer
GUARDIAN
[Harari] connects past and future in a way that’s both enlightening and a little eerie. Nexus isn’t just a critique of technology; it’s a reflection on how we’ve always been vulnerable to those who control information. It’s a wake-up call in the gentlest, most urgent way
YOTAM OTTOLENGHI
An illuminating and troubling book
FINANCIAL TIMES, *BOOKS OF THE YEAR*
Yuval Noah Harari is the undisputed maestro of the big idea… nobody can pull of a big theory as suavely as he can
The Times, *Books of the Year*
[A] thoughtful book… [which gives] an important perspective at a time when the info-wars seem likely to only get worse
