本书是由蒋松柏、蒋文君编写的《伟大的人类》(英文版)，其内容提要如下：    This book tells us that creation of life and human beings is not inevitable in the universe. Instead, it is the result of accidental combination of many universal factors to creation of life. It is a unique accident in the universe. The development from lifeless universal element to very complicated life and finally to human beings capable of understanding the world needs very demanding condition for celestial bodies in the universe. Not all celestial bodies can give birth to life and human beings. Even for the earth with so advantageous condition to creation of life and human beings, it took 4 billion years to develop from organic matter to human beings. How long the process is!
