This is not a mere adaptation of the historian's bestseller, but a recreation of his lessons of deep history, in a more colloquial, funny, dynamic tone, thus increasing the instruments of popularization of multidisciplinary science to which the history of the development of the human species submits. Through several dialogues with experts or fictional characters, we explore many dimensions of the existence of homo sapiens, from all the factors that differentiate it from other biological species to the ways it has impacted the world, whether as an ecosystem, social structure and space of imagination. A challenging work that makes accessible to readers from 9 to 99 years old an adventure that not only belongs to us, but that we are!
