I was told they do. So I asked the question. It can be a bad question.

Lol. That’s just partisan opinion on partisan opinion. In other words he wrote a stirring book. He’s a historian not a scientist. You could say the same about any Niall Ferguson book, who recognises him as the best living historian.

IMO Sapiens is let's say .. inspiring (?!) I'd even dare to call it a like a Bible for atheists For mefor example it gives me a sense of belonging to something bigger Beyond religions, nationalities, skin color, etc etc We're more than that. At the end of the day, we're all the same specie: Sapiens and this what we should remember

Thanks for your thoughtful response and I agree. I also think nexus is a must read for all crypto people as it really moves attention to how humans organise around narratives rather than dry information and “facts” or canonical forms. My take is that to be effective you have to focus on the goal of organizing rather than the goal of being “right”. As we know from audience capture in podcasts, right can be wrong for the wrong community disassociated from facts.
