About this title

Synopsis

Learn HOW early humans took over the Earth and WHY the world they built isn't fair in this two-volume boxed set of the New York Times bestselling UNSTOPPABLE US series. The author of SAPIENS takes middle school readers on an epic and exciting voyage through early human history in these beautifully illustrated books.

"Gripping and thought-provoking." —The New York Times

Unstoppable Us, Volume 1: How Humans Took Over the World

Humans are the most dominant species to ever exist. But how did we get that way? The answer is one of the strangest tales you'll ever here...

Unstoppable Us, Volume 2: Why the World Isn't Fair

What happened next? How did our hunter-gatherer ancestors become farmers? Why were kingdoms and laws established? How did we go from being the rulers of Earth to the rulers of each other?

Acclaimed author Yuval Noah Harari has expertly crafted two extraordinary stories of how humans learned to not only survive but also thrive on Earth, complete with maps, a timeline, and full-color illustrations that bring his dynamic, unputdownable writing to life.
