The author looks back from year 2045 at how WW3 started and its aftermath. This Third Global Conflict will be triggered by factors world leaders have no control over and when it happens they will not be ready. If they panic and resort to their thousands of nuclear warheads there will not be a history book to read about it in the future. The author spent eight years researching the contents of this "fiction" about how WW3 will be fought and the possible outcome. Many lessons were drawn from the first two world wars and the contributing socio-economic and cultural factors. The overwhelming conclusion is that those factors are clearly present today. They will inevitably draw the major military powers into conflict that can escalate rapidly beyond anyone's control. While this fiction tries to imagine a peaceful resolution and even an opportunity to rebuild a utopian society, this might be just excessive optimism. The message here is prophetic. Leaders of the world cannot afford to be complacent. World peace cannot be preserved by starting an arms race. Nobody is going to win the next world war. The subject matters of this book is deliberately controversial to provoke serious discussion by those who are concerned about the fate of the world. We need to start building a new global social and economic system for future generations based on ethics and morality to avoid this coming war. We are 100 seconds to midnight
