Lessons for the 'now'

Israeli writer Yuval Noah Harari has made a big name for himself in China with Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind and Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow.

The Chinese version of Harari's latest book, 21 Lessons for the 21st Century, by China Citic Press, which was translated as A Brief History of the Present, explores neither the past nor the future, but focuses on the 21st century, and its challenges, like artificial intelligence and climate change.
