The book emphasizes the significance of cross-cultural commonalities in anthropology, challenging the reluctance of scholars to explore universals since the 1970s. Christoph Antweiler advocates for a broader understanding of humanity, proposing that anthropology can foster a perspective that highlights shared aspects of human experience rather than focusing solely on differences. By viewing the world as a planet interconnected by commonalities, the work aims to enhance both academic research and real-world coexistence.
