Challenging the notion that humanity is on a steady path toward improvement, this work explores the complexities of human nature through a multidisciplinary lens. David Berlinski critiques the belief in a declining murder rate and the idea of an impending utopia driven by technological advancement. By weaving together insights from history, mathematics, and literature, he highlights the enduring presence of both beauty and depravity in the human condition, asserting that humans are unlikely to evolve into god-like beings.
