"Sapiens- A Brief History of Humankind" Brief Summary
Yuval Noah Harari divides human history into four major revolutions: the Cognitive Revolution (~70,000 BCE), when humans developed imagination and complex language; the Agricultural Revolution (~10,000 BCE), which introduced farming and permanent settlements; the Unification of Humankind (~34 CE), marked by the gradual consolidation of political and cultural systems; and the Scientific Revolution (~1543 CE), which enabled humans to systematically understand and manipulate the natural world.
