Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind
Yuval Noah Harari · 2011
Homo sapiens conquered the world through shared fictions: money, nations, religions, corporations. Money is the most successful fiction in human history. When you understand the financial system as a shared story, bubbles become collective hallucinations and crashes become crises of faith. Harari rewires how you think about everything, including what's in your portfolio.
