The Decline of Humankind

The main topic of this book is to question the current popular concepts of humanity's progression and development and makes alarm about the systematic crisis, the disastrous prospect of human society, and its accelerating trend.

In this book, the author has selected several unique articles, either echoing with faithful readers, solely discussing human health care, or outlining the history of philosophy, through which readers can easily get a glimpse of the author's point of view while avoiding difficult philosophical demonstrations.
