First Principles & First Values by David J. Temple - an attempt find a unified story for humanity. Since failing to do so has driven humanity apart. We've come to a collective realization that our species' persistence isn't guaranteed, and that we are faced with dealing with stopping two outcomes - the death of humanity (through a catastrophy), or the death of OUR humanity (through a dystopia).
Really well written, a mix of philosophical and religious-oriented writing for the modern age.
