Technology has enabled us to make enormous strides in virtually every aspect of life. Even so, our psyches and bodies remain almost identical to that of our primitive ancestors. We exhibit the force of this conflict individually as well as globally. Our struggle is to bridge this gap before it becomes unattainable and leads to our undoing.
