YUVAL NOAH HARARI on A Brief History of Tomorrow

Brattle Theatre welcomes the bestselling author of Sapiens YUVAL NOAH HARARI for a discussion of his latest book, Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow. Harari will be joined in conversation by Harvard’s MICHAEL SANDEL, author of Justice: What’s the Right Thing to Do? and What Money Can’t Buy: The Moral Limits of Markets. This event is co-sponsored by the Petrie-Flom Center for Health Law Policy, Biotechnology, and Bioethics at Harvard Law School.

What then will replace famine, plague, and war at the top of the human agenda? As the self-made gods of planet earth, what destinies will we set ourselves, and which quests will we undertake? Homo Deus explores the projects, dreams and nightmares that will shape the twenty-first century—from overcoming death to creating artificial life. It asks the fundamental questions: Where do we go from here?
