About this item

Do autor de Sapiens , esta é a história fascinante de como as redes de informação definiram nosso mundo. Nos últimos 100 mil anos, nós acumulamos um imenso poder. No entanto, mesmo com todas as nossas descobertas e conquistas, estamos diante de uma crise sem precedentes, com um colapso ambiental iminente e desinformação correndo solta. A chegada da era da inteligência artificial também representa um perigo para nós. Afinal, por que somos tão autodestrutivos apesar de tudo o que conquistamos? Nexus olha para a nossa história e avalia como o fluxo de informações moldou a nós e o mundo onde vivemos. Em uma narrativa que vai desde a Idade da Pedra e passa pela canonização da Bíblia, pelas primeiras caças às bruxas modernas, pelo stalinismo, pelo nazismo e pelo ressurgimento do populismo hoje, Yuval Noah Harari nos convida a examinar a complexa relação entre informação e verdade, burocracia e mitologia, sabedoria e poder. O autor explora como as várias sociedades e sistemas políticos utilizaram informações para atingir seus objetivos – para o bem e para o mal –, assim como as escolhas que precisamos fazer num momento em que a inteligência não humana ameaça a nossa própria existência. A informação não é a matéria-prima da verdade, tampouco uma mera arma. Nexus explora o meio-termo esperançoso entre esses extremos e redescobre a humanidade que nos une.
