Humans: A Brief History of How We F*cked It All Up by Tom Phillips

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Ah, failure is so much fun! This great, breezy read catalogs our filings, from the Australopithecus afarensis Lucy falling out of a tree and dying up through our modern foibles. It's fun and depressing at the same time.

If you like laughing at our species while despairing for the future, check this book out.

I think I'll skip this one, thanks.

You'll be missing out, then. It's so funny, and yet in that "rather laugh than cry" sort of way.

And next you need to read -

"Truth: A Brief History of Total Bull&&&&" also by Tom Phillips.
