Summary of Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind by Yuval Noah Harari
Summary
From where did the world appear? Is the creation story true? Why is Man the way he is? Were there men before you and me? Would there be other species after you and me? Religion and politics: What is their origin? And why do they rule our world so strongly? Oh well! You might be in for a shocker! If you were told today that you come from a lineage of animals, and probably have some apes and chimpanzees as long-lost cousins, what would you think? If you knew that the creation story was just make-believe invented to control your world, what would you say? What if you were told that your species would one day come to an end?

Three Seconds in Munich: The Controversial 1972 Olympic Basketball Final
Summary
One. Two. Three. That’s as long as it took to sear the souls of a dozen young American men, thanks to the craziest, most controversial finish in the history of the Olympics - the 1972 gold-medal basketball contest between the United States of America and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, the world’s two superpowers at the time. The U.S. team believed it had won the gold medal that September in Munich - not once, but twice. But it was the third time the final seconds were played that counted. What happened? The head of international basketball - flouting rules he himself had created - trotted onto the court and demanded twice that time be put back on the clock. A referee allowed an illegal substitution and an illegal free-throw shooter for the Soviets while calling a slew of late fouls on the U.S. players. The American players became the only Olympic athletes in the history of the games to refuse their medals. Of course, the 1972 Olympics are remembered primarily for a far graver matter, when eleven Israeli team members were killed by Palestinian terrorists, stunning the world and temporarily stopping the games. Through interviews with many of the American players and others, the author relates the horror of terrorism and the pain of losing the most controversial championship game in sports history to a hated rival. The book is published by University of Nebraska Press. The audiobook is published by University Press Audiobooks.
