About the Book

A. Based on fact-checking, this book relates the world’s financial crisis and political violent turmoil in many countries to the accumulative effects of structural flaws of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UNUDHR) and constitutions of member states. A democratic genetic engineering (DGE) program is proposed to peacefully democratize the world by 1. opening political consciousness and encouraging common people to take political power into their own hands to become political-power wielders, to exercise the principle of equality, which is the essence of democracy; 2. complementing freedom of speech with freedom to be heard, equal treatment, and freedom of information; 3. opening free government political media to all citizens to criticize, suggest, and campaign; having free speech forum for private sectors; and 4) producing all authorities by periodic democratic elections; making all important decisions by the majority of three independent-power branches: legislative, judiciary, executive. B. Learning Lessons from Nature Educated people all believe in nature science. Modern physics proves that our world is wave-particle dualistic. Complement opposites rather than antagonize them is the sustainable solution since opposites are complementary. World peace, in fact, is only a matter of change of concepts. C. Making the Human Dream Come True Life is limited, and possession is not portable. Possession not in use is a waste. Well-coordinated, systematic approach of targeted philanthropy will enable people to be free from struggles for making a living, to choose the jobs they love most, and to make their greatest contribution to humanity, education, research, and creation will flourish. Human beings will enjoy happiness than ever before. The world is not enough. Human beings will choose the best star to live in the universe.
