Homo Deus : A Brief History of Tomorrow (Korean)

Homo Deus surveys humanity’s long-century ambitions to transcend the biological limits that once defined life. Harari traces three recurring projects: achieving immortality, attaining happiness through biotechnology, and granting life meaning via data-driven systems. He argues that science and technology have begun to reconfigure what it means to be “human,” shifting power toward those who control information and artificial intelligence. The book emphasizes how knowledge, not force, now secures influence, and it questions whether our technologies serve human flourishing or undermine it. Harari interweaves history with speculative futures, highlighting both utopian promises and existential risks. He warns that optimization and efficiency can erode agency, dignity, and ethical reflection if left unchecked. The narrative oscillates between grand arcs—the decline of religious authority, the rise of techno-oligarchies, and shifting conceptions of consciousness. Ultimately, Homo Deus challenges readers to reconsider what kinds of futures we are capable of building and sustaining.
