Lycka för alla individer oavsett om man har en religion eller inte, är målet med de gemensamma värderingar – universell etik – som presenteras i boken.

För att hantera utmaningarna i dagens och morgondagens komplexa samhälle och göra våra liv bättre behöver både individer och samhället i stort värdesätta och agera utifrån dessa etiska principer.

Grunden för universell etik gås igenom och en detaljerad genomgång av dess komponenterna görs. Boken innehåller ett kraftfullt recept för individuell lycka och lösningar till de utmaningar mänskligheten står inför.
