Summary

Have you ever wanted to know how Homo sapiens became “human?”

In the beginning, Homo sapiens was just one of the human species in the world. After centuries of coexistence, it was the only survivor. How did that happen?

This captivating audiobook on Homo sapiens uncovers the secrets of our species and what made us human. From their humble beginnings in the dawn of prehistory, Homo sapiens rose to become one of the most resilient species in the world.

Unlike many other creatures, Homo sapiens lack the physical prowess of fierce predators. Yet, armed with an exceptional cognitive capacity, our species has defied the odds. How did we achieve that?

This audiobook uncovers the fascinating stories locked within our DNA, as well as our cultural legacy, tracing the history of our species since its very beginnings. Our cognitive capabilities and advanced communication skills have paved the way for our species’ success. From harnessing the power of fire to mastering the art of metalworking, our ancestors were relentless inventors who tamed the wild and conquered new frontiers.

Transporting readers back in time, this captivating exploration begins seven million years ago in Africa. Witness the remarkable moment when a group of primates started walking upright, setting in motion the extraordinary story of our species.
