I have really enjoyed CODE as well, and I recently started reading Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind by Yuval Noah Harari

Completely different subject, taught in a way it builds up.

I actually just finished that book last night. I enjoyed it, but its accuracy seems dubious. There are some good links to problems in the book in this thread: https://amp.reddit.com/r/AskAnthropology/comments/jqqovm/is_...

Still worth reading imo. Reading the book and then reading about its errors seems as good a way of any as getting a big picture view of human history.

Sapiens is great! And the audio version is enjoyable.
