We can never be sure of the worst, but what we know is that time is running short.
The first thing we can be sure of: there is no other planet than Earth for humans to live on.
Another certainty: we have to think about the future, because the future is tomorrow.

Hence we have to look at all the dead ends in which we have found ourselves already, and consider the catastrophic consequences that ensue each time we continue in those directions.
The issues addressed in this book include:
- Nuclear proliferation
- Demographic developments and the need to open our frontiers
- The need for a new definition of evolution
- The tyranny of economy
- Ecology
The last chapter demonstrates the necessity for a twenty-first century education - a comprehensive and indiscriminate education.

Albert Jacquard studied at the renowned Polytechnic school of Paris and trained as a genetic expert. He is committed to the fight for the establishment of a different, mature and lucid society, based on the realization that generosity is not a mere virtue but the condition of our survival.
