Quote by George Bernard Shaw

This work presents a speculative vision of human development across thousands of years. The plays progress from the present day through successive eras, imagining how humanity might evolve physically and spiritually if given vastly extended lifespans. Shaw uses this framework to examine philosophical questions about the nature of humanity, progress, and the obstacles that prevent human advancement. The work reflects Shaw's characteristic wit and his interest in social reform, presenting his ideas through dramatic dialogue rather than didactic exposition. more
