Book Description
Humanity has always faced, and continues to face, one of the most complex and troubling problems, its own future. Ever since humans recognised themselves as part of the universe, science, philosophy and religion have invariably addressed the fate of the human race, its origins, evolution, and continued survival.
This book attempts to examine this problem in the context of both the modern scientific worldview and historical processes reflected in palaeontological and astronomical data. The central idea is to understand what humanity must do to ensure the continuation of life as planetary and cosmic processes enter a new phase.
Not all conclusions can be considered universally accepted; some are hypothetical or provocative. However, this is precisely the scientific and ideological value of this work. It encourages the reader to consider the scale of what is happening. “Prophecy” in this context should not be understood in a religious sense. Rather, it is a reflection on probable future scenarios, based on the observation of natural patterns and an attempt to understand the possible limits of human capabilities.
This book is addressed to any reader considering the fate of civilisation. It calls not for fear, but for awareness: for the need for knowledge, responsibility and harmony with nature as the only path to humanity’s survival and further development in a changing universe.
