10 Preface When I set out to write this book in the beginning of 1975, I felt very pessimistic about humanity and its prospects for survival. In fact few of the books and articles published on the subject depicted more than a bleak future. Yet, as my knowledge of the matter developed, I began to see more clearly the persistent regularity which characterises evolution and I was finally convinced that the understanding of any human activity would not be possible if it were not set against the historical background of all human activity. Seen in this broad context, the laws of evolution became clear. They permitted a much more scientific analysis of the actual world situation and finally led me to predict a moderately optimistic future. On the other hand this gradual understanding has also forced me to embark upon the description of subjects on which I can hardly be called a specialist and obliged me to rewrite most of the chapters. On many occasions the volume of the book has only permitted me to sketch a general outline of the subject where a detailed study would have revealed many interesting and varied aspects; but I believe that I have reached my main aim, which was to convey an understanding of the evolution and history of mankind. I do not think it necessary to give a list of the many hundreds of specialised scientific articles which I have consulted: the data mainly comes from the last few years' issues of the New Scientist, Science and Scientific American and from the yearbooks XI
11 Xll Preface of the Encyclopaedia Britannica, and should therefore be easily available to any reader who wishes to acquire a more detailed knowledge. The realisation of this work has absorbed most of my evenings, weekends and holidays during the last three years and I would have found it difficult to sustain the effort had it not been for the company and encouragement of my wonderful friend Claire van Velsen. I cannot possibly express in words my appreciation of her presence and constant help, which have greatly contributed to making this book what it has finally become. I am also very grateful to Mary Fearnley-Sander, who has been so kind as to proof-read the text, and to Nigel Robson for his helpful comments. P.P. Brussels, 1978
