Summary "Century of Light" by the Bahá'í International Community is a historical account written in the early 21st century. The work explores the transformational changes experienced during the 20th century, particularly in the context of the Bahá'í faith and its teachings. It likely aims to present a reflective view on the struggles and developments of humanity in relation to the ideals of unity and peace espoused by Bahá'u'lláh, the founder of the Bahá'í faith. At the start of the text, the introduction emphasizes the profound changes that occurred during the 20th century, describing it as tumultuous yet pivotal for the human race. The authors argue that hope for a better future must align with a deeper understanding of the historical transformations experienced, particularly as they relate to the Bahá'í teachings. It sets a somber tone by outlining the moral and social chaos that marked the century while highlighting the faith’s enduring message of unity and the need for humanity to recognize its interconnectedness. This opening portion presents the overarching theme of the book, which seeks to connect the historical context with the spiritual insights of the Bahá'í faith as a comprehensive framework for understanding the challenges faced by humanity.
