Abstract

This generation faces two conditions of life which have never before existed. The first is that the major threat to human survival comes from man instead of nature. The second is the incredible speed of technological advance, especially in means of communication and the control of energy. As a result chronic problems of human relationships, in particular, hostility, suddenly demand solution as a price of survival, at the same time that the past experience of mankind in dealing with such problems offers little guidance. Some twenty-five years ago the philosopher Alfred North Whitehead remarked that this was the first generation in human history that could not use the precepts of its grandfathers as reliable guides
