What does History, Number Theory and Evolutionary sciences have in common? Nonzero takes you on a fast ride around the world (I mean the real one, not just the left side of the map) and through history. Sinthetic and comprehensive.
Shows that two variables ( information & communication) have been a constant throughout history and even before. From primitive life forms, through tribalism and towards globalization.
After demonstrating this using Number Theory, Robert Wright builds up a great book basing his conclusions on evolutionary and social sciences discoveries and findings.
It´s a book everyone can read. Great in scope, deep, simple and the good part… leaves you thinking.
If you are still not convinced, check the webpage and read some of the book.
And here´s the Amazon link, just in case you are feeling lazy.
