Science has firmly established that modern man is both genetically and intellectually identical to his ancestors 50,000 years ago. Relativists, however, proclaim him morally a chameleon that changes color at any point in history. Jenner contests this thesis. In a panoramic excursion that begins with hunter-gatherers and ends with today's superpowers, Jenner shows that human conscience - the knowledge of good and evil - is a constant throughout history - in spite of all Hitlers and Tamerlans. This leads the author to a second insight of equal importance. In the 21st century, united humanity as perceived by Kant, Einstein, Russell and Toynbee has finally become the common task of mankind.Science has firmly established that modern man is both genetically and intellectually identical to his ancestors 50,000 years ago.
