O knihe
Each turn of the century, in addition to the formal transition, marked the end of the old and the beginning of a new stage in people's self-consciousness. But the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries becomes one of the most critical junctures in human history. The coming century will declare all the values nurtured by humankind throughout its history obsolete and sharply, in just a few decades, will drag the level of development of civilization to unprecedented heights. The crisis of religion, two world wars, Freudianism, nuclear weapons, string theory, computerization and robotization, the development of the theory of evolution - humanity is discovering an entirely new universe with an indifferent and cold cosmos, a universe in which the brain itself, as an instrument of evolution, becomes powerless before the renewed mysteries of nature. Mankind stands on the edge of an abyss, all former reference points are left behind, and death, the eternal companion, looms in front of our face more clearly than ever. In what is salvation to be found?
