概述作者對人類社會發展的看法。作者認為，雖然人類可能因核戰爭或過度擁擠而滅絕，但存在一種可行的替代方案：大型企業將重心從軍備轉向為全人類提供生活服務。他指出，透過發明和技術進步（稱為 livingry），而非政治手段（稱為 weaponry），可以為全人類提供永續的高標準生活。作者追溯了歷史上工具和企業的發展，特別是不受國界限制的、以盈利為唯一目的的跨國公司（「巨靈群」）的興起，並認為這種力量雖然可能帶來危機，但也可能在電腦化的引導下，發現為全人類服務的更大潛力。最終，作者認為人類的目標是成為宇宙的資訊收集者和問題解決者，並強調透過理解普遍科學原理和發揮個體心智的潛力，可以實現一個沒有匱乏的全球社會。
