The book explores the idea that humanity's most remarkable qualities, including technology, civilization, and morality, may stem from a single unique capacity: the ability to envision and contemplate the future. It delves into the historical quest to understand what sets humans apart in nature and posits that this evolved mental power is fundamental to our greatest achievements and distinctive traits. Through this lens, the book examines the interconnectedness of our cognitive abilities and the essence of what it means to be human.
