What is this?
NEV's Book Group 2 meets most months on the fourth Wednesday to discuss the book we voted at the last meeting (alternately fiction & non-fiction). Someday we’ll fill our living rooms, but for now held via NEV's Zoom teleconferencing account using your computer/tablet/smartphone.
Register using "Register Now" button and you’ll get an e-mail with Zoom link and password. Discuss the book for first 60-75 min. (depending on how many attendees), then extend the chosen books scheduled for following months, then finalize the next meeting.
Book for this discussion: Humankind: A Hopeful History, by Rutger Bregman, 2020, nonfiction, 399 pages! Dutch author is translated. Argues that humans thrive in a crisis and that our hard-wired kindness and cooperation have been the greatest factors in our long-term success on the planet.
