The Essence of The Book

In Subsurface History of Humanity, Victor Torvich briefly reviews the mankind’s history for the last 44 thousand years. The book will help you to make sense of the history of humankind.

     Victor Torvich found the objective direction of the development of humanity. That direction is not related to subjective terms like purpose, destiny, meaning, happiness, higher morale, or alike.

     Victor Torvich specializes in the complex system of humanity. Insights from his academic papers on this topic helped him to find out where mankind is headed.

     Torvich further reveals the answers to the following big questions. How fast humankind is moving in the found direction? Is that move controllable by humans? Why humans rule the Earth? Which force is driving humanity’s development?

     The book concludes with a discussion of which circumstances could lead us off the uncovered course.
