Book excerpt: Journey Through the Ages is a book that attempts to trace the history of human beings from their origin to the present. It highlights the important stages they passed through in their evolution—biological, political and socio-economic—and, based on the understanding of their past, visualises what the future portends for them. The book includes the observations and opinions of great thinkers like Charles Darwin, Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, who exercised a profound influence on our thinking. In the process of collating this information, the author has amalgamated historical evidence with philosophical theories to make the analysis meaningful. The book discusses early civilisations, the influence of organised religions on our society and more. It also highlights the relentless efforts of human beings to establish a social order, which ensured liberty and equality for all. Journey Through the Ages concludes with the hope that society will rectify its shortcomings and move nearer to the desired goal in the next stage of the social evolution.
