YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe children’s series #UnstoppableUs continues! After telling the story of how we came to dominate the planet in ‘Volume 1 – How Humans Took Over the World’, Yuval Noah Harari shifts his focus to exploring the way we live together in the brand new ‘Volume 2 – Why the World Isn’t Fair’.
Most history books are full of kings, queens and generals: but where did they all come from? Why do some people have so much while others have so little? ‘Unstoppable Us, Volume 2’ tells the story of how an innocent experiment in growing wheat 10,000 years ago led to famine, plague and war, and still affects how we live today. The book reveals how ancient geeks developed writing and why we have to pay taxes – featuring characters like the hunter-gatherer Wanda, the farm-settler Wheaty, two chatty skeletons, a crocodile with gold earrings, and fifty billion depressed chickens. Discover where things went wrong, and how we can put them right!
