Empires rise and decline leaving behind lessons of history for the next generation to improve the lives of humanity. This century marked by dramatic rise of technology and travel creates both the agony of cultural adjustment and opportunity for understanding of the past for the benefit of the future of mankind where we are searching for institutions and culture which accommodates everyone with dignity and equal opportunity without the boundaries of class, colour, religion and nationality.  The front picture of the novel reflects this interaction of people in today’s society described in the novel which continues to be from the appearance of people rather than the content of their ability and character.
