Summary: This research is a pioneering attempt to see what the problems of our life today will turn into for mankind. Possibly very soon.

He gives a rational explanation for the need to believe in God, being a universal thought for mankind. Finally, the author critically analyses the imperfection in science and pleads for a holistic approach towards the use of science and technology for the future of our civilization.
