Many thinking people now have an inward sense that twenty-first century humanity faces stark and urgent challenges that demand wise and decisive responses. Profound illnesses call for profound remedies, and when nothing less than radical change will do, courage is essential to survival.

Man And The Universe is a compelling and urgently needed piece of writing about what we human beings are, where we stand, and what we can do about it.
