It seems that fate has given Laszlo Bito two lives. The first was a martyr's life in Hungary: deportation, forced labor in mines, humiliations, exile. Following it, he made himself an enviable second life: a career in America, that brought him much success and recognition, not yet as a writer, but as an internationally-known professor of physiology. The medicine for glaucoma that he has developed brought a fundamental change to the management of this blinding disease and today already thousands of people can thank Bito for their escape from physical blindness.

The moral blindness, the acceptance of aggression and violence has always been the central question of his literary works. Where are the roots of evil? Why does man, God's creation, become ruthless? The answers to these questions Bito is exploring in two roles - as a successful writer, (a chosen son of fate) and also as a man who had known much suffering.

Bito brings to us with unimpeachable scientific logic his philosophical verdict: our tendency to evil is not in our genes. Rather, it is a product of our civilization, our culture. Thus, we can only blame ourselves for our ruthlessness, for all our misery . We must search our own past for the origins of all our troubles.
