As a kid, I got into trouble with my teachers a lot, because I did not believe them. Could it really be true that we, Homo Sapiens, achieved all that stupidity taught to us in history class?
This book explores how unbelievably strange it is that the creature, Homo Sapiens, became the dominant force in the paradise of the universe we call Earth.
We are in the age of a new Cold War, fake news powered by troll factories, election meddling, increased authoritarian leadership and fundamentalism. Now nobody is arguing with me – it’s become widely accepted that we are in fact Homo Stupido! This has inspired the title of my next book: Homo Stupido: Are We Intelligent or Stupid?
We are all born a genius, so why does stupidity dominate everything from war, the environment, politics to economics, terror and sport?
• As a Homo Genius, it would be stupid not to read this book.
• As a Homo Stupido, it would be genius to read this book.
• Discover the animal kingdom’s take on Homo Sapiens.
• Learn how artificial intelligence (AI) and technology will upgrade the human race.
• Explore the new species – Homo Earth.
I've previously written four books, including One and Sharkonomics, which have been translated into several languages. Sharkonomics recently sold over 10,000 copies in China. In my next book, Homo Stupido, I will be moving away from pure business books into simply capturing what’s next for humankind.

This book is for people who are open-minded, progressive and love to learn. An individual who enjoys stand-up comedy, explore new ways of thinking and to challenge his or her intellect. It’s the CEO, the school teacher, the diver. It’s people with a sense of humor, who enjoy thinking and discussing the big questions in life.
