Sapiens

From earlier notes:

• Most notable thing about language is about ability to abstract
• These stories, imagined, let us cross the threshold of 150 person communities we can track
• Agricultural revolution wasn’t a benefit, it was a trap
• Inter-subjective. Not objective but exists bc of shared belief
• Deus: people become not individuals but collections of biological data
• No longer true that ‘I know me better than anyone else’; collection of biological systems that we can balance not just 1 individual
