I liked this book even more than the prior book, Sapiens. However, it was much less focused on the future than I would have expected. Only about the last third of the book talked through the future of humanity; the first two thirds focused on history and present day.

One minor gripe I have is with the way Bostrom's philosophy was presented. I would think that a book that mentions Bostrom in a book on the future of humanity would dedicate at least a subchapter to his ideas. The few sentences that Yuval uses makes Bostrom's ideas seem comical whereas providing proper background would show how important and logical his ideas are. Though I should mention that Bostrom's "Superintelligence" is in my opinion the best and most important book on the future of humanity/technology.
