Will the unknown part on the cover image be reconnected and follow the same trails as before? Human beings are remarkable creatures. While the pace of biological evolution is incredibly slow, the rate at which humans transform the world through science and technology is astonishingly rapid in comparison. Consider the contrast between our lives today and those of people a thousand years ago. Despite having similar appearances and not vastly different cognitive frameworks, the disparity in livi...
