Volume V: The Emergence of Meaning
If civilization can live longer and more safely, a question remains that technology cannot answer on people's behalf: why is life worth continuing? Volume V brings civilization's long-term purpose back to each particular life, allowing meaning to emerge continually through real relationships, choices, creation, and responsibility, rather than being uniformly assigned.
