Our bodies and minds often break, fail, and hinder us. To be human is to live with this extraordinary contradiction. So, to understand the course humanity has taken - from prehistoric times through the age of empire and into the modern era - we must understand who, and what, we are.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLewis Dartnell takes us on a mind-expanding journey across time to show how our biology has determined history. From the epidemic that brought Europe's peasants freedom, to the health deficiency which gave rise to the world's largest criminal organisation, to the cognitive biases that led to military catastrophes in Crimea and Iraq, we see how our unique nature shaped our relationships, economies and societies - and, importantly, how it continues to impact human progress today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e'This book is quite literally wonderful' \u003c\/b\u003eED CONWAY, author of \u003ci\u003eMaterial World\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e'A wild ride' \u003c\/b\u003eTIM HARFORD, author of \u003ci\u003eHow to Make the World Add Up\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e'A gripping, red-blooded narrative from a master storyteller'\u003c\/b\u003e JO MARCHANT, author of \u003ci\u003eCure\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9781529925531\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow our biology shaped world history\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9781529925531","offer_id":47141375803717,"sku":"9781529925531","price":16.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/9301fb50-480b-4f01-bf96-1adbe14963b2.jpg?v=1780373456","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/being-human-von-lewis-dartnell","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
