The main part of this collection is formed by articles of 1966-1969, published in Literaturnaya Gazeta, as well as in the magazines Voprosy filosofii and Communist. Due to their polemical nature, they are naturally reproduced here unchanged, with the exception of small literary amendments. Only the article "Caution - humanity!," Abbreviated by me for publication in Literaturnaya Gazeta, is printed in a more complete form, according to the original. The second part of the book consists of additions and comments explaining a number of controversial issues. They are written for the present edition and accompanied by illustrations.
