Sapiens - Ilustrované dějiny 1 Zrození lidstva – Harari Yuval Noah, Vandermeulen David (2026)

In a world overwhelmed by unimportant information, simplicity is a source of strength. How can we see the bigger picture without being buried under endless insignificant details? One way is to step back and look at the truly big picture: the entire history of the human species. Sapiens: An Illustrated History tells the story of how an ordinary ape became a human capable of splitting atoms, flying to the Moon and changing the genetic code of life. Guide Yuval Noah Harari, together with characters such as prehistoric Bill, Dr. Fiction and Detective Lopez, invites readers on a journey through history. The graphic format offers new opportunities for the intellectual and artistic exploration of history. Human evolution is presented as an entertaining television reality show, while the first encounter between Homo sapiens and a Neanderthal is viewed through masterpieces of modern art. The extinction of mammoths and sabre-toothed tigers is solved as a detective case. This illustrated series is an entertaining retelling of the story of humanity and an adaptation of the international bestseller Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind, which has been translated into 60 languages and sold 16 million copies. It is full of wit, humour and colourful characters, with the aim of engaging people who do not usually take an interest in science and history. The contents are in Czech.
