Description

'Insightful' YUVAL NOAH HARARI'Fascinating' SUNDAY TIMES'Elegant and absorbing' FINANCIAL TIMES'Profoundly moving' IRISH TIMESWhat can we learn from the Bushmen? If the success of a civilisation is measured by its endurance over time, then the Bushmen of the Kalahari are by far the most successful in human history. Anthropologist James Suzman spent twenty-five years in Southern Africa documenting their way of life and encounters with modern society, gathering invaluable lessons about work, wealth, happiness, equality and time.
