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] 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

In Nexus, Yuval Noah Harari uses information networks as the backbone of human evolution, offering profound insights into how technological progress reshapes our social structures and individual lives.
