Yuval Noah Harari, born 1976, is an Israeli medievalist, military historian and popular science writer who teaches history at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind (2011) grew out of an undergraduate world history course. Homo Deus, 21 Lessons for the 21st Century (2018) and Nexus followed. Harari's work examines consciousness, intelligence, happiness, suffering and storytelling. The 16 catalogued titles begin with Renaissance Military Memoirs (2004) and reach Sapiens: A Graphic History, Volume 4 - The Age of Revolutions (2026), with Unstoppable Us as another series.
