It contains a 'bird's eye view' of the history of human evolution; an outline of the Secret Wisdom; the story of those supermen who have taught humanity throughout the ages; an analysis of the genius and functions of the nations of the world; a survey of all the kingdoms of nature and of man's relationship to them; an approach to the grand issues of Divine Plan for this Universe; and a synthesis of all this with the findings of modern science.
