Features: When did we begin to think we are omnipotent? Was it when humans first landed on the moon in 1969, or the endless imagination brought by the rapid advancement of science thereafter—conquering the universe seemed imminent? However, the truth tells us that we may have to live on Earth forever! Earth is so small that if we calmly reflect, the day when it cannot bear our burden is not far off. The era of a "finite world" has actually begun! What kind of humans do we hope to become? This book narrates the development of humanity's understanding of the Earth from the microscopic perspectives of physics, mathematics, and biology, as well as the evolution of human beings themselves. Through vivid and thought-provoking examples, it scientifically points out the new stage of human development—the arrival of the "finite world" era. This book prompts humanity to re-examine and redefine its actions, which holds significant guidance for the future of human development.
