David Christian

An extraordinary book that puts us in our proper place in the cosmos, while also explaining why the story of human culture and knowledge is essential to understanding our existing world and shaping the future.

David Christian, an American historian based in Australia and co-founder of the Big History Project, covers the big history of everything in Genesis—from the Big Bang to the first stars, our solar system, life on Earth, dinosaurs, Homo sapiens, agriculture, the Ice Age, empires, fossil fuels, the moon landing, and globalization. And everything that came after that.

“I’ve been a longtime fan of David Christian. In Genesis, he skillfully weaves together the evidence and predictions of many scientific disciplines into a single, accessible historical narrative.” – BILL GATES

“In Genesis, David Christian has found a phenomenal way to use history to organize our entire knowledge of the world. It’s a remarkable achievement.” – CARLO ROVELLI, AUTHOR OF SEVEN BRIEF LESSONS ON PHYSICS AND THE ORDER OF TIME

"The ultimate way to look at our understanding of the origin of the universe, the solar system, oceans, mountains and minerals, all life on Earth and the dynamic rise of human culture and human achievements. All this in just over 250 pages of stunning reading, in which the author interweaves evidence from science, art and humanism." – SIR KEN ROBINSON, TEACHER AND AUTHOR OF THE ELEMENT BOOK
