Despre această carte audio

This audiobook has been recorded using Text to speech (TTS).


In science fiction from the last century, we should now all be living in some kind of grand utopia. Beautiful spaceships should be carrying us around the universe. We should be jumping through worm holes and meeting new alien species. The times of war and unrest on earth should be things of the past.


Alas history has not gone that way. Instead, nothing seems to have changed in the grand scheme. Nations still invade other nations. Religion still holds sway over billions. Millions of people still starve while others gather in a harvest of riches the majority can only dream of. We kill and devour more and more innocent animals every day, while science is gradually uncovering the truth about the sentience and intelligence of them. We invent and test new drugs on each other on a vast scale. Like locusts we are chomping our way through the riches of the earth without a care in the world. Somebody somewhere in the future will figure it all out and save us. Won’t they?


Millions of years of evolution have brought us to this place. A situation where we are aware of ourselves, what we are doing and why we do it. And yet we carry on regardless. We are no closer to understanding the one question that has confused us ever since we became conscious. The meaning of life.
